100% agree with you there my friend! And I know from PERSONAL experience! Back in July of 2003, I got laid off from my Network Engineering job of 11 years. Got paid a great salary and could pretty much set my own hours (as long as the global network was purring). I landed another job in October 2003. I am now a callcenter supervisor. IT was just not hiring anywhere. For those of you that have never worked in a callcenter before, let me tell ya, micromanagement HEAVEN! It made me sick to my stomache. EVERYTHING is timed down to the second. I had to track how long Johnny went to lunch. Ooops, he was gone for 15 minutes and 49 seconds. Only supposed to have a 15 minute break. Got to write up a record of discussion.... Absolutely ludacris. The good news? My old job called me. The economy is crawling out of the toilet. They want me back. There is a god.... Just a little blurb from someone who has tread on the other side.
