Re: Another Ethics Question

I was in a similar situation before I started my company last year. There were some key differences though.

1- I wasn't getting paid what I ASKED for. My request for a raise was turned down cold.
2- I wasn't working in a beautiful waterfront home 9-5, I was working in a claustraphobic noisy glorified machine room 55-70 hours a week including most weekends and holidays
3- I was bringing business to the company that would go with me if I left (and they did)
4- I didn't trash my employer in public therefore I didn't burn that bridge. My old employer is now a client because they couldn't find anyone to replace me. They account for 20% of my business now
5- I developed an exit strategy over 6 months and built up cash reserves to see me through the initial stages of a new company
6- I asked a lot of questions on The Cow instead of complaining on The Cow
