Are you engaged at work?

Engaged in your work, not engaged to your secretary. 

I read an interesting article today (ironically I was at work when I did) that kind of hit home with me. In it, the author states, "In 42% of companies, the best workers are the least engaged." 

If they are bored or they feel under-appreciated, they will stop talking up their employer, mentally unplug from their work, start looking for opportunities elsewhere and eventually jump ship.

I've been with the same company for over 5 years but have recently started looking elsewhere..I guess this is a sign that I'm bored with my work and not engaged anymore (probably why I'm on 11W).  

How often have you switched companies?
