Here goes nothing... employment wise that is.....

"The company" have offered the following:
A 50% cut in commisions (this is my bread and butter) pun intended.
A 500% increase (over three years) in health care premiums.
Removal of all restrictions upon hours and days of work.
The right to hire permanent part time empolyees to place in whatever position they deem necessary, whenever they deem necessary.
The right to outsource any or all jobs as they deem necessary.
The union (evil parasites that they currently are) have broken off negotiations.
The company insists that this is the absolute minimun to emerge from bankruptcy.
The managment and many of the same board members that got us into this mess are still in place. Only the CEO, CFO, and a few vice presidents have been changed.
If we (union employee's) don't work, the company will fail and will be sold piecemeal
All this goes before the bankruptcy judge Oct 5. My only conundrum is, do I give notice before or after judgment?
If before, I believe that I am due accrued vacation and personal time at the current payscale. If after? Any body out there? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

I don't play golf anymore. Well, maybe I do sort of. I quit keeping score, started drinkning beer and I started playing better.

You might want to contact RCW through figs. I think Rob is an employment practices attorney. At least post there. He usually weighs in on these types of topics.

Sorry lad, I don't go there anymore. I should hope my profile has been deleted, per request, by now. |

Oh, ouch. Hope things work out for you.

The company my dad works for just sold out to a nationwide (possibly worldwide?) corporation. We've yet to find out what this could mean for current employees. Previous employers haven't even formally acknowledge the sale and it's been over two weeks....
