Anyone else remember BK-proof retirements and retention bonus for the worthy few. Retention bonuses by the way, paid to execs who left anyway.

Yup, they were called SERP's; Special Executive Retirement Plans, and Leo, who had worked here only 5 years, was credited with an additional 20 years, so he could get a 25 year, Bankruptcy Proof, SERP.

When ever I fly over Nantucket on my way to Europe, I go back to the lav and pee in the sink, so it will rain down on Leo.
