Refuse to train your replacement
When someone has valuable skills that they have acquired over a lifetime, shouldn't those skills be treated like an asset, same as money in the bank, and protected the same way? Why is it that we, as a culture, believe that it is honorable or noble to give those skills away to the same people who would replace us in the workplace?
Let's say you are American, working for an American company in America. And your company decides to send you to China (for example) to train people to do your job.
What should you do? Refuse? What if enough of us refused to do that, to essentially send our jobs away, would it make a difference?
What if, instead of skills, you have accumulated capital. When you invest that capital, you actually get a return on it. When you "invest" your experience, you most often get a boot out the door, especially if you have trained your replacement well.

There was some problem finding a whole bunch of files I had organized. Could I come back for a day and transfer everything onto my boss's hard drive? 
Oh sure, I'll do it. 
But by the time I was able to make it back to work and help them out, wouldn't ya know it, IT had wiped the hard drive at my workstation.
