Its only recently that they've started to impose the rules you now sign up to before you make a response. If your message gets edited you've no one to blame but yourself for being stupid. If management really didn't want to hear responses then they wouldn't have provided the opportunity to allow everyone to write in, or they'd have removed it after a short period. I think its very telling that this communications opportunity exists.
and if you're really lucky you get an invite to meet Barron for him to personally brainwash you, as happened to some people over the pension proposal comments on the natsnet.
You mean those people who were full of p1ss and vinegar but didn't have the balls to speak to PB personally? Or do you mean those who wrote libelous comments (about DB9's etc) thinking they could hide behind the anonymity of the internet and get away with it? I thought it showed the mans committment that he is prepared, as the CEO of a major company, to make time to see people who seem particularly hard of understanding and try and better inform them.
Sounds like a fair compromise to me, I'd vote yes to 4%, anyone else?
I would if there was any chance of that being on the table. Given the recent sackings of some high powered managers, the redundancies and the letting go of 50% of contractors I somehow doubt there will be a reasonable pay offer.
