..and another one gone, and another one gone

The exodus continues.  We are losing the man with the most intimate knowledge of our legacy systems.  We are losing the woman with the deepest knowledge of our database design.  We are losing the super-star developer who has essentially re-architected our entire system for the better in the past year. We are losing a very strong QA person.  We still have no business analysts.  We are still short a director.  And tomorrow we have a three hour staff meeting that carries the strong odor of "Who Moved My Cheese".

I still have no intention of quitting, but...  good god, when is somebody in the upper echelon going to take notice and stop the bleeding?

Around the time I started with the company, they were giving everybody a copy of the book "Who Moved My Cheese?" It was your basic flavor of the week managment fad wank.
