| schestowitz[TR2] | @ep truthfully you're just ridiculously annoying. Almost everyone on this site has been (or were) at IBM for years and have either seen the dismissive, disrespectful way IBM treats people, or have been victims of it themselves. You are painfully naive and condescending and, quite frankly, don't have enough experience to weigh in. | Jun 21 18:56 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | As others have mentioned, you can be the absolute best employee, you can be the top team member, get all the badges in the world, log 100 Think40 hours, work your nights, weekends, and vacations, go into the office 5 days a week and your name will STILL come up on a spreadsheet at some point and you'll be shown the door. Stop trying to correct people who have been around long enough to know what is true. | Jun 21 18:56 |
