i responded to a draft letter last night and it was sent today without mention or discussion of my input. this is the fourth incident or so since i've resigned that this has happened and i'm tired of this "we want you to tell us everything you know" attitude but then have it ignored, which has been my whole life here. so i suppose this is less than politically correct, but i responded, "i know i'm leaving, but i have noticed that none of my suggestions are recognized, discussed or used. so i don't waste my breath or my fingers over the next week, if my opinion counts for nothing, please either remove me from the idteam alias or say you're open for comments from anyone but me. thanks!" being professional here doesn't work, but being pissy often does. garrett responded with the usual "blah blah respect blah blah appreciate" and i said, "i appreciate your words, but your actions are clear. there is no dialogue here."
i'm so glad i'm leaving.
