I'm guessing you have some specialised skill and are difficult to replace? For someone unskilled, that's a one way ticket to never getting a shift again.

  No, i just do my work, whatever it is, starting from summer work in collective farm fields after 6th grade back in the 1985, construction in 1987, Navy yards in 1988, construction during University summers 90-92, and various programming gigs starting 90. At any place, including very good paying job in Western company in 1999 in Russia with the crisis around, any attempts by the management to arbitrarily tighten the screws - i'd visibly and prominently challenge and object to it, and few times it would be i'd really be ready to leave. The management would always back down. We are all pretty much aware what things are reasonable and what aren't, and taking unreasonable position is what makes you already half-lose whatever side you're on.

    That sounds awesome man. You don't happen to live in Melbourne and be looking for a job, are you?

      Thanks, i'm in Bay Area :) Australia is great, and it has been popular with Russian/Ukranian/etc immigrants too. I read some are trying to start a space port there.
