[SunRescue] Rant on industry employment practices, was RE: 16 MB memory module for Voyager

I dunno.  I've only been a "IT" person for about twelve years (when *I*
started it was Data Processing) and I've seen every kind of employer, from
good to bad, during recession and the boom years.  It just seems easier to
justify boorish behavior when times are bad.

tech sector. The problem is not the employees or the projects or the ideas
but the guys running the companies.
