Francis, Re: >"Huh? On what planet is this? I have friends who are switching jobs to get 20% more a pop - one friend got his first interview 10 minutes after posting his resume on the net."<

Perhaps your friends went elsewhere because their current position is not giving much in pay raises? Hence wage raises are slowing around 2-3 % not much. salaries are high yes so new higher's will sometimes get more initially.

<Wage inflation will never happen, already started to slow>

Huh? On what planet is this? I have friends who are switching jobs to get 20% more a pop


Hint:
Perhaps they are switching jobs because they're current employment is not giving them those raises (read wage stagnation for static skill sets)
