  • This reminded me of a situation I was in over a decade ago. Many people had been axed in a restructure and I felt that the only reason I survived was that I was the only person that understood the business that we supplied analysis tools for.

  • Reminds me of my uncle who worked at a auto manufacturing plant along with his son. When his son complained to his mom that dad just sat around all day his dad explained that he was there for when something went wrong. That's when he showed his real value.
