Pick up nickles while stepping over dollars.
But I'm greedy, remember. It's all about my pay increase.
The dollars will still be there to pick up. This is about getting the SCOPE protections in place and improving brand scope with the opportunity provided. The failure of the TA was immediately followed by the CEA and GOL investment announcements. How long prior had those decisions been made? That was the wake up call for most who were paying attention.
Prior to that, this was hardly an issue. Although I had been beating that drum and profit sharing as a claw back for a long time before that. You're welcome.
