A bit off topic perhaps, but where I work at "big corp" there are so many people who have worked at the company for 15-20-30 years, it's really incredible. They've built their whole lives around big corp, they've bought a house nearby, live somewhere where there aren't many alternative jobs. They've worked on the same thing for at least a decade, and they only ever "changed jobs" within the company itself.

I have a very bad feeling that these people will be tasting the result of the faster global world very soon. People in my generation will never be relaxed and content with their job (for better or worse), because we know it might not exist in a year or two.
