Companies might be more inclined to consider people NON-interchangeable
if people were to consider companies similarly.  Re-training is a poor
investment if the newly-trained employee jumps ship immediately.  This
is particularly a problem in the "trendy" "high-tech" industries such
as electronics and computers.

My point is that if there really is a difference in corporate attitudes
between here and There, then it isn't because American corporations are
deep-down mean, but because of the social climate (among other things).

Enough "social climate".  This means YOU!  Have you been duly grateful
to your employer when it has done something for you?  Does this sound
naive?  If you don't want to be naive, then why should your employer?

If there were a net.ethics, I would be interested in hearing about
people's conceptions of employee-employer obligations and vice-versa.
