That actually happened to me. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the reason we don't hear about it more often is because there's no story. People will complain endlessly when they feel they've been mistreated by an employer. But it seems that when everything is fine, or even when you like your employer, there's a lot less talk about it. -- Alex Esplin /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
