    Need to get out of my job ASAP, it is DESTROYING me.

    I'm in the same boat. I've eventually been fired from every job I've had for having a shitty attitude. Right now I've managed to stay with the same company for 10 years -- No idea how that happened. ROFL -- It sure had nothing to do with me developing a more positive outlook on Corporate...

    Someone talked about development becoming a commodity above... I think you could say that for all of IT. When I started in IT, it was considered an intangeable commodity -- Meaning that we didn't know how much value it provided the company on a dollar & cents balance sheet, because there was...

    How do you Manage your "To-Do" List?

    MINDSET
