Unfortunately because that's exactly what the two options are.

I am not interested in taking any concessions. That's why I will be finding a new job within the next two years, or I will have no choice but to leave the industry. We had a real chance at changing things about a year or so ago, but PSA started a domino effect from which there is no recovery. When someone else will always do your job for a cheaper price, they will always be the ones who will be chosen to do so. Long gone are the days when quality actually matters. Management simply doesn't care any more.
