This is a good example of how we shoot ourselves in the foot. It's just like when LM, in one of his final letters as MEC Chairman, crowed that we had reached a milestone in that we were back to our pre-bankruptcy pay. Totally leaves out the fact that we took a 32.5% pay cut PRIOR to bankruptcy and that our pay was/is nowhere close to being restored. Technically, it was an accurate statement (just like yours), but it is extremely misleading. Unless you're happy with where we are now. And maybe YOU are, but if that's the case, I think you're in a very small minority.
