Gimp,
If things were as bad as you make them out to be then why on earth did you put up with it for 9 years, could it be that your lack of experience couldn't find you a proper job?
As soon as the sh1t started on my 2nd time around at Emerald, not from MOB who I hasten to add that I have never had a problem with, I promptly put my jacket on and went home, I found another job and started it within approximately 2 weeks?
The fool is the one who stays, the bigger fool is the one who stays for 9 years and then complains about it afterwards.
