Once again the question is, time to move on, again? The answer is "probably not," but good news would be most welcome. Instead we get more variations on the market retrenchment / outsourcing scheme.
For employees who have been on the bubble for over a decade as a result of Delta's various outsourcing schemes ... it does get very old.
So where would you go next? After all this restructuring is completed where will the next fast growing sector appear? I'm not entirely sure there is another definite winner out there given macro influences. The risks seem to be spread around quite well in the industry. You could call a winner within a given short timeframe. I just don't enjoy the other cultures that much. I'd much prefer to work on a secondary and stay in my timezone...not to be confused with Douglas effect on time zones...taking one back in time to the days of large disheveled mustaches...which suit me well.
