Titled but unworthy

I think this week I sent back to school again =_=||| Feels very much like a small child being lectured by adults who have walked over more bridges than the roads I have ever traveled or have consumed as much salt particles as the grains of rice that I ever had.

I suppose that is why those kind of people are where they are because that is what they bring to the table. Although still related to the field which I like but I think I am at least a couple of years behind my colleague.

What made me worry was the way they deal with people here. Today an email was sent out to everyone in my company, the content tells of 4 senior managers, ALL of whom have worked in the company for more than 15 years at the very least were "let go" and their departments restructured. Their staff were only told end of last week. It feels so not right despite we all know that they all got a handsome fee which some refer to as the "golden handshake".

Sends a shiver down my spine thinking about those loyal people, good people who have given most of their life for the company to be "let go" in such a manner. It was rumored that they have discussed and thought about this matter before accepting the "golden handshake" but perhaps my experience with my previous company was that they were too good to their loyal employees.

As I always say, my title in the company does not mean much because it is just a way for HR to place me within their pay scale or better known as salary range. In this sense, I am just another salaryman just like most of you guys out there :)
