Fact: If you go to an interview with X many years experience in Y industry and with Z similar job experience it's valued over another candidate.
So, if you were to follow a career you've invested time, money, training and studying for qualifications it would mean that all this has to be thrown away if you decide to compete, or better put, follow on in a career path you've invested in.
It's a pity the defence isn't countered by future TOTAL loss of earnings for life of contract & the previous loss of career path vs natural churn of employee + retraining of other. I think this would hammer the point home. Either that or create a firm of consultants and have a silent mgmt board or partner running the other company. Same result but different route. Madness!
