That's odd, I have seen VERY good facilities in the DoD establishments I have visited. But perhaps it depends on your level of skill, and the kind of environment you describe is the only one that you can reasonably aspire to :-) Seriously, I think you are operating under some very peculiar misunderstandings of the real state of things. Indeed, the really bad facilities that I have seen have all been in commercial companies .. mismanagement of resources is not a government monopoly :-) -----------== Posted via Deja News, The Discussion Network ==---------- http://www.dejanews.com/ Search, Read, Discuss, or Start Your Own
