Agreed, the 'scab' quip was a touch harsh.
And CXKA; of course I have issues! Major bloody issues after working for these ar$eholes for the best part of two decades.
I stand by my 'recruitment ban' though. The rot set in when we started recruiting from an entirely different demographic, (read - unsuitable and inexperienced cheap snowflakes with hair gel fixations and severe shiny jet syndrome), and thereby started training our cheap replacements.
We should have seen the writing on the wall and the AOA should have demanded a higher standard of recruitment/experience ages ago.
