I hope I'm reading it right.
That's the way I read it too, 5% of your projected 2014 pay, which as you said, could be about 50% of your total profit sharing, the remainder to be paid on the normal Feb. 14th date.

Now I've got to wonder why?

Is this a move simply to pacify Wall Street, a little now, a little later, so the pay out next Feb. won't look so big and raise more questions like last time?

And what about that 4% raise? How you like'n that 3% now? Too bad you're not a "Front Line" employee!

Are the non-contract people talking Union again? That always gets them a small raise.

Maybe if WE talked about joining a Union, we could get better than a 3% raise too!
