Reply #10: Hope things get better for you too

For me it was the reverse. I spent the last 15 years killing myself for a company that seemed dead set on committing suicide. My profession had been rendered all but obsolete (electronics repair) and the manufacturers wouldn't share enough information to let you do your job effectively. By the summer of 2002, I decided I just couldn't do it any more. Especially in today's business environment. I'd like to be working again, but it's not so much the job I do but the quality and ethics of the company. Not easy to come by a company that truly values their employees and customers. I'm not the sort to start my own business because actually running it would drive me nuts.
