With employment, it's often not if but when. There was a time when
jobs were considered lifetime connections to companies. That's rare
today. Anyone who goes to work for a company thinking they have a job
for life is making very foolish assumptions in the modern world. The
product or service you are making or doing may not even exist in 10
years.
