>>I heard one of the interviews with a striker on the picket line and her reasoning was that Jack Welch could pay the difference with one or two years of his ridiculous pension, that and she was afraid if they gave on this point (which seems reasonable in light of the rising healthcare costs) that management would really put the screws to them later this summer. <<

indeed a mental disconnect.

that worker should have a long conversation with the airline pilots and workers who have had to renegotiate their contracts in the hope of preserving their jobs

this is not to say that i agree with obscene executive compensation, but that is a function of the board of directors and shareholders.

anyone who has had to meet a payroll (as you have and i do) knows full well that existence of that employee's job depends upon the profitability of the company.

we are not in business with the associated risks involved to "trade dollars" and if one of my employees does not approve of my compensation (hypothetical here since we are not a public corporation)... they are free to look for employment elsewhere.
