Quote:

I can remember someone telling me in the 70's that the days were gone when you'd work for one firm for your whole career and that people would have five to seven employers.



And so the lack of covenant often felt in today's workplace.

We were a small business where everything got done face to face, without swinging down a hatchet from behind
a phone 900 miles away. Our longest employee stayed 40 years. He was still with us part time when we closed last week.

I have a sweeping generalization that's unfortunately often the truth: "Big companies suck."
