That would describe me.

I have been continuously employed in non-military
high-tech (as an individual contributor) throughout
the ENTIRE downturn. My income has also increased
(not decreased) during the downturn.

I work extremely hard to keep my technical skills
competitive. Frankly, I think this downturn has
been beneficial to my career! In today's more
competitive environment, I think my skills are
valued more on a relative basis than they were
during the bubble.

Oh, I see, a "manager"...
Maybe it is YOU who is out of touch.

God knows it wouldn't be the first time I have
dealt with an "out of touch" manager during my career.

>very few are in touch with the professional labor force.

Yeah, just go ahead and denigrate the qualifications of
anyone who disagrees with you (rather than deal with
the substance of their arguments). I feel truly sorry
for your 30 underlings.
