Exclusive: the latest offer

I have subversively acquired a copy of the company's 11th hour offer.

Here it is, in its raw format:



Where P is the diameter of the pineapple, T is the quantity of lubricant in litres and C is the quantitative amount of respect the company has for its pilots (asymptotic to 0).

The HKAOA is currently consulting with the MIT and has rented a NASA weather-modelling supercomputer to decipher the offer and weigh its benefits.
The boffins should have it figured out just after the Christmas and CNY holiday peaks, but that's okay because it's back dated to January 1st 2015.

If you worry the membership might turn it down, be assured that a SDGFBA (Super Duper Good Faith Bargaining Agreement) is being drafted which will tie the company to the negotiating table for a contractual 2 years, and will ensure we convey our seriousness and determination in these matters and hopefully wipe off the gigantic grins they mysteriously seem to be wearing during negotiations.

Don't worry. AOA will have another negotiation session with the company next month to discuss whether they need more meetings in Nov to clarify the formula.

I heard it rumoured that was the simplified formula, there was another one that assumed the speed of light wasn't in fact a constant, the formula varied closer to the 11th hour.

That is simplicity itself to our Oxbridge Educated GMA.

Hey, that offer is based on the answers to our survey at the back end of last year; so the NC did bring what we wanted to the table and CX modified it a little.

Broccoli is a member of the cabbage family so and remember the famous quote to the masses, "Let them eat cabbage".

So our pay-rise should include enough for 1kilo of cabbage (or broccoli) per family member per week. But only at wet-market rates from China, none at the price of top of the line stuff from a 1st world country that may have slipped into welcome.

That is simple if you remember Dt = ( ф'α • w'β )/( 2f - σιi ) and P Ξ ( δ'ς + ωא ) - √( гж • ΣΔ ) and 2fσιi can't equal D * t unless w'β = m ⊥ n, this can be derived from (¬A) ⊕ Aф in the domain ∀ n ∈ ℕ: n2 ≥ n.

This is simple CX interview stuff, should be in WB forum. It just Green's theorem.
