My current job should easily survive, and even thrive in the aftermath of that bubble. It HAS led to a number of issues when planning a timeline for future purchases though.

But, the new boss is reasonable and knows where to place the blame, especially after I provided sources.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
