In fact, I was told that because of outsourcing, we would be "worthless" if we didn't do mgt like stuff. Can you say team lead, or business analyst or something like that? Well, I resisted, and went into SCM (as a developer) instead of being canned as a developer. Well, there is a lot that goes into being an SCM person. So I found a nitch that I can be in until I retire()! Jerry On Tuesday 23 January 2007 19:46, Dazed_75 wrote: > The ones that get sucked into management lose.
