Let's just stay away from stock. Put it in my paycheck every month, month in, month out. Let Dick and Eddie play that game.

(I thought the B/S was a pretty good descriptor, too)




T-square,

You completely missed the point of my post. I was pointing out that DALPA, in their great wisdom completely screwed up the distribution of the second stock grant. They withheld the stock grant from our membership because they got cute and thought they knew best what to do with the stock grants. Consequently, it was distributed to us at a historic low after it cratered from $12.00 to $4.00 per share. I never intended to imply any sort of manipulation.

I am merely pointing out that screw ups of all kinds are possible when you are talking about stocks or stock options. Much of our membership does not have the knowledge necessary to manage or trade a stock option, regardless how the distribution is structured.

Give me everything in a hourly wage. Steady hourly wage is all the incentive I need.

P.S. I've got tickets to Georgia-Tennessee. I'm in the club section. I'll be the guy wearing red and black.
