I feel your pain Asok!
The good news for me is that all the Electrical Engineers in my unit are over 60. The bad news is that all of their 401(k)s are in the tank and they will most likely die in their cubicle before they can afford to retire.
How about if someone in management just happens to cross the street at the wrong time? Sure, it'd be less fruitful than being an engineer, but it would still be a raise in pay from being an intern.
