First year: bedazzled by systems complexity and bright colleagues.

Second year: bonus sucked, I must pull harder.

Third year: it wasn't really my fault, why is my bonus == shit?

4th: wtf am I doing here anyway? I know my stuff, my friends have left, the new guys know nothing, my manager is a moron. Oh, why don't I move to management?

5th: must crap the whip harder.

6th: seriously? you haven't left yet? OK, take another management training class. It worked so well last time.

7th: maybe I don't really control that many things here. What exactly does the CEO/CFO do here? What's with the budget?

...

you are dead.
