I'll admit, my post last night was made under the influence and was more than a bit flamebaitey. Sorry about that. The basic point, that nobody should be surprised by stagnation after overwhelmingly approving a TA containing productivity givebacks (in a time of record profits!), stands.

So far as entitlement goes - I'm not in any particular hurry to get to DL given that I'm enjoying good QOL for the first time in my career and I know I'll be Jr for a long time over there. I didn't believe SD's "campaign promise" of fall hiring when he made it (did anyone really take him seriously!?) and always figured there'd be no flows until 3Q or 4Q 2013. I'm not whining about DL not hiring. I'll gladly go to another major if they start hiring before DL takes me. So where's the entitlement? Or is that shorthand for an outsider pointing out uncomfortable truths?
