Well.... so many techies work soooooooooooooo many hours. If you calculated what they earn per hour, I think you might be surprised how low it is, so options should be looked at as part of a total compensation package. If they go away.... salaries probably will have to go up. Then what? Companies get hurt on the earnings front either way I guess. Still...... insiders with plans to sell at levels like this just irks me. Do they really need that much money when shareholders are being left with the bag? I'm not talking about Joe Engineer toiling away in his cublicle. I'm talking about the big guys who earn a nice salary already. Not all companies are like this though. Look at THC. The ceo only sold his options because they were going to expire this year and they were on a ten year expiration calendar. He bought near the lows out of his own pocket, and I can say that no way he earned what a tech company would pay. Is it an easier job? I doubt it. Hospitals are one of the most stressful places to work and run. TA
