UK Companies Love IT Workers, Love Not Returned

Roblimo writes "'The study, completed in early July, showed that U.K. employees working in the information technology industry are more valued than they think they are,' says a story at ITMJ.com, but it also says, 'According to the results of the survey, only 45% of IT workers feel valued at work, and 70% don't believe that their job reflects their true potential.' Not only that, but 'Seventy-five percent feel discriminated against because of their age; 43% say their bosses think they are too young, and 32% feel too old.' That leaves only 25% who believe they're the right age for their jobs, and only 30% who feel they're working to their true potential. Does this mean U.K. employers need to worry about a mass exodus from the I.T. field, or is this just normal griping?"

    "When a death happens it's the focus of a week or two, even if it's random people."

    What do you mean by "random?"

    Do you mean that if the target of a killing was just arbitrary, like a bomb on public transportation?
    Or, to you, does "random" just mean "someone you don't know?"
