I don't care how long you've been here if you're going to consider those types of offers I would urge you to stiffen your resolve and reconsider.
Giving money to share holders does nothing to improve the business.
Pheeeww, I have hope now! These are exactly the kind of responses I was optimistically hoping for and I could not agree more! The company should be using the profits, that we help make for them, and be reinvesting in its pilots 100% and NOT rewarding shareholders first, for doing what? I really hope this time we hold the line and get everything we have already earned and deserve (notice I didn't say want!) No concessions, not one. The company can cry me a river. I'm not looking to get paid for the work I'll do in the future, I demand to get paid for the work and sacrifice I've already given and performed. My family deserves nothing less.
