[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 419525, member: 3162"] Wow!! Where did this come from? I am a wage slave? I turned down a $90 an hour package in Illinois to stay where I currently work. I didn't want to run out on the farm, family, granchildren etc. Peers who have climbed the corporate ladder over the last 30 years have wondered why I didn't want to. "the man"??? We made him. But back to your slaving point. I have to ask, Have you ever watched a bird build its nest and sing its heart out all the way? I sincerely enjoy a since of accomplishment, although I cannot sing like a bird. I don't get that from editing documents on a keyboard in the corpo world, in that cubical. Edit: The most folks I have ever supervised was around 65 people and that was 25 years ago. I don't like being in charge of people lives and have lots of stories to tell. It is not for me. When I see really good young engineers jump in and contribute, I am very proud of them. My engineer daughter included. I don't care for yongsters with attitudes. I don't care for older folks with attitudes either. [/QUOTE]
