I agree 100%!!! We have proven TWICE that we have no idea how to negotiate or "improve" work rules without getting it stuck to us in the end. Give me $$$ Today and I'll improve my own quality of life.
Lawyers? Yea, our lawyer, My Cousin Vinney, will square off with the company's ten Harvard law grads. Yea, let's just stick to pay rates!
