I asked this question. His response was that in his mind if an employee wants to leave they are probably dissatisfied with the gig and are ready to go and, therefore, they would not be very productive if they stayed. Likewise, if they did something to try to keep me there then there would be resentment and I wouldn't offer them help if they needed after I left, which I did end up doing soon after I left. I told him that he should have talked to me about it. Anyhow he's an awesome manager. He actually went before the board to get special permission for me to work from home. So he backs up his team and we pretty much jump as high as he wants us to.

I only see him maybe once a month now.
