You don't think about this until you are in this "old" range.

As one who works for a top 10 global mega company and whose stock is 1/2 of what it was a year ago, this makes me wonder.

It's not just IBM. Lots of companies.

Adding video to channels (Equality, History, Money, Wtf) - requested by ant.

Companies need to be able to compete, and if they will do better with fewer employees then that's just unfortunate reality.

Eventually we will have to face the fact that we need a citizens dividend, there is not enough useful work to be done and people still need to live.

i grew up near Kingston, NY where IBM was the main employer for the mid-Hudson Valley and we all studied hard to get a job there. They closed operations in 1994 and the area will never recover.

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by eric3579.

you sound pretty socialist when it suits you.

There is a reason I wear jeans, t-shirts and ball caps to work everyday. Ageism in IT is very real and I want to sneak under the radar for as long as I can.

I did not imply that government needs to change this. Just that it sucks.

i find that hilarious.

You think with the right laws and right politicians in place you can make the country not suck? That is hilarious.
