This is from a press release from Challenger, Gray, & Christmas, the headhunter famous for its monthly job cut totals:


>Do Not Be Seen as a Virus
>
> Complainers often lead very short lives in corporations.
> With the economic downturn, there is a lot more to complain
>about as companies turn more frequently to outsourcing, downsizing
>and reorganizing. Employees can quickly find themselves doing the
>job of two people following job cuts. They can also find themselves
>moved to other areas where they have to learn all new procedures and
>responsibilities.
> However, complaints, no matter how seemingly subtle,
>inconspicuous or even well grounded, will eventually make it back to
>management and will most likely be looked upon unfavorably.
> Management knows that it does not take long for negative
>sentiment to spread to other individuals, other departments and then
>possibly to investors.
