In honor of my fellow MTs who are soon to be exHeartlanders I, personally, am not going to buy a thing on Friday, July 7, 2006--- nothing, not a gallon of gas, not groceries, not an ice cream cone-- not anything. I'm sure that no one will notice but  I hope you will join me anyway. 

 I think this is outrageous.  It seems to me that if Heartland conglomerate laid off 1 top executive one $71 million salary would make a nice little lump in their profit margin instead of laying off 151 MTs!! How outrageous is that!  Today, in the minds of politicians America is corporate America, working Americans are just a souless, faceless mass.  What's it going to take to change their minds... a revolution?

So what exactly IS your point, if any, besides the obvious pedantic and self-righteous diatribe?

I do not know All Type or any of the people involved in this but it have been reading along because I am interviewing with them next week.  I was very upset by this and scared that I had made the wrong choice.  You have made a lot of statements and I was thinking that you were treated unfairly and that I hoped you proved your case in court and maybe make our place in the industry a little stronger.  We are the lowest people on the totem pole in every company and we do get kicked around a lot.  But you now sound like you had it in for one particular person at your company and have worked very hard to cause problems for that person.  I just do not know why you would stay there or even want to go back if you hate this person and she makes you this unhappy with your life and job and she singled you out to cut your pay so drastically.  I agree with the other poster who said you have wasted a great deal of time on this and that you should move on and find yourself a better job with a company that is a better fit for you.  I think you have gone too far and become far too emotional when you get this dangerously close to slander.
