Well sounds like you are well rid since you don't seem to be happy there.

OTOH you should consider your level of professionalism, show how good you are and move on.

just to add insult to injury, apparently I can teach her stuff I've learnt in 12 years...

over the last 7 years I have trained chinese, indian and polish to take my work.

you are lucky you have lasted this long.

I have performed detailed handovers in the past and still been asked back.

While I left them with the details of my work, I didn't tell them how to apply it or implement it (that's my Intellectual Property).

Most PM's don't recognise that there's a subtle difference between the two.

This is absolutely no different from what a large consultancy would do in this situation (indeed that's how they make their living).

Quite. See my thread on added value...

Could you point me to it, sas? I'm always willing to add to my knowledge on this...

Ah - found it...
