[QUOTE="Seedy, post: 1992405, member: 10694"] So they should have taken LESS money home to their families? So you are saying that working for a bankrupt failing company for LESS money than they would get from unemployment INSURANCE (remember its insurance, we pay for it, unemployment isn't welfare) is better? How long do you think the company would have stayed viable? 26 weeks? Also...you might not want to let your employer know that you will work for less money. They might take you up on that offer? How many of you can honestly say that if you were asked to take an 8% pay cut on top of PREVIOUS pay and benefit cuts that you would stay? I can answer that question. Many moons ago I worked for a BA company called Mikahtek. They announced an 8% pay cut to help pay for the resurfacing of their parking lot. I quickly found another job...and let's just say that when i quit, my exit interview was epic. I didn't just burn that bridge...I poured gasoline on it then danced on the ashes. [/QUOTE]
