I would and have walked away, my worth is my accumulated knowledge and abilities, if you want me to do a job, I'll do it, if you want someone else to do a job, they can do it, never expect me to do someone else's work for them.
The sooner everyone stops passing on knowledge the harder it will be to get shafted. The employer and contracting company will have the expense of running up a large number of new workers. It could even blow up in their faces. The only thing companies understand is money.
Sounds like workers need to unite to have enough power to face up to the employers. Sounds like union talk, well it's not. Companies are well organised with industry groups which give them greater strength than they have as a single company.
Workers have been loosing ground for a few decades now, the middle class is in damage control. Personal debt is sky-rocketing.

Australia gives gas and coal power generators billions in subsidies per year, they are not viable either. Maybe we have to look at the other side of the equation - our over consumption. We've lived the good life at the cost of the planet, time for us all to get real
The Australian government has the right to create any bogus law they want. If you don't like the new law, just challenge it in the high court. If you win, good on you, but generally they will just turn around and remake the law with a clause it can't be challenged by the high court.
I have enough information - our politicians are all corrupt and in the pay of corporations. This is just way over the top surveillance in the name of anti-terrorism. I always keep a low profile, don't vote, don't bother the tax office with tax refunds (I pay full tax), don't bother social security and don't see why I should be a statistic, unless it fits into the category of being one of the unseen.
I would like to see an associated feature - converting to different formats, using capable, standard libraries. I use three applications which use their own code for the same conversion. Each resulting file is quite different, although each fits into parts of the file standard.
The slogan from the Australian conservatives is "The New Economy". Crapolla The new economy is what has been happening since the 70s. "The rich get richer, the poor get the picture" Can't find someone to fill the position? Eat Shit! I don't work in my trade because the wages offered are too low. Every time I have gone back to "employment" it has been crap. I have withdrawn my labour. I only work for myself or friends. I now enjoy working as an artisan, don't earn as much, but I'm not a wage slave.
If search was built into the routing protocols of the internet, it wouldn't be a function owned by Google or anyone else. It is such a fundamental requirement for a large network, it should be an extension of DNS augmented by the servers providing the content.
The costs in terms of money, power, server farms, etc is extraordinary because it has needed to be tacked on top of the internet.
I'd sorted all the callouts, finished the workshop repairs, cleaned the workshop, was setting up a linux boxen to play with. The boss knew I was always busy, he looked over my shoulder and asked what I was doing. Told him everything was fixed, he sacked me on the spot. Fuck I'm Good, Just Ask Me
Most apps intrude too much into my privacy. I disable nearly everything. I'd rather my privacy than having a really useful device in my hands. I want an phone running Linux, just like my pc, where I have full control.
Cloud and subscription is just a return to the good old days of mainframes. The corporation has the computer, the user has a dumb terminal. Control has been taken from the user. Remember the great revolution the IBM PC brought about ? Well we're helping them to reverse the power balance.

fuck knowledge transfers

never expect me to do someone else's work for them.

The internet will never be secure while it is based on insecure hardware and protocols.
Encryption is necessary because the underlying network infrastructure and protocols are inherently crap.
mine is

this is a big hint to start using KeePassX
so how do they get 30 hours from 4 days 10am - 2pm with 14 flex hours

Wouldn't get me jumping into an empty cab with no driver.
Sure some cab drivers are so vacant they may as well not be there,
but...

The US courts steal all your assets so you can't afford to fight the charges, you are guilty of anything they want to charge you with.

Porn is essential
Back in the 70s I lived on an island which had community built, public access cable TV and water supply.
The shared water supply is still operating.
give credit card details to a porn site,
you're pulling my dick!
