    It is amazing how ingrained in the culture of IT the idea of always being ready to quit is. Steve's expression of it as the first thing you need to do when put into a no-win situation is one of the more honest expressions of it that I have seen. It makes me wonder if there is a forum for managers where they discuss how to deal with high turnover rates. My guess there is there isn't one.

    I don't think Steve is saying you should be ready to quit, he's saying that if something blows up, and you're "responsible" for it, then you should realize that the company may fire you. All jobs are temporary, even the ones that don't act like it. It just makes good sense to always have your resume updated, *especially* if you're in a position where you may have to take the fall.
