Mercenary....working merely for money or other reward. Well, I have not been blessed around here with too many other rewards (profit share is pitiful and for overtime we have already paid the ultimate price....family & health) so yes, I still qualify as a mercenary. The only difference is that we don't get to kill anyone like a foreign mercenary. Instead its the company that does it....one by one our colleagues leave us and its only a matter of time when I will be one of them too. Each has a tale to tell but ultimately the price has already been paid.
