Thanks, George.  I guess I follow your reasoning.

What hurts us the most are senior practioners (i.e., managers, firm owners, etc.) who continue to undervalue their (and everyone else's) professional services in the scramble to get work in a highly competitive environment.

throwing out comments along the lines of "excavators must be treated
as well-educated and/or experienced and multi-skilled specialists, and
they must be paid and led accordingly well" without ever quite
explaining how we can go about doing this... & i don't see how we can
explain to developers that we need more money for our "embodied,
sensual encounters"... any thoughts/comments (aside from complaints
about this message being too long)?"

I took issue and thought this an issue...were I work no one signs
contracts with the excavator, P.I.'s do with their patron/clients.
