What's the best thing Mary's done in the last year?

What do you think her annual review would say justifying this year's raise?

I think it's the CEOs who get paid the big bucks for not working.

How much of a raise did the auto CEOs get for the fine job they've done?

Was that reasonable?

I find this quite disturbing. Some of the items they are asking for are truly unrealistic. Let us all put our adult pants on and remember that the people who began the unions would be appalled at the way the members are acting.
Disagree with all you want, but they worked for what they got, and they proved they deserved it, I find it hard to get behind individuals who want to get paid for not working. You give what you get.

Negotiations aren't going well, so why give extensions?

It's not like they're "really close" and "just need a little bit more time."

This is expected. They've made it clear from the start that they won't give any contract extentions.

If they strike all 3 that'll really hurt the economy.
