It is interesting that the company has put itself in a situation where the crew and the company don't have a common interest
It's called bluffing. The company is desperate for everyone to jump on COS08, hence the threatening stance and short deadline. Psychological warfare at its best. They have a lot to loose, maybe as much as we have...
One question that has to be answered is that if the company is desperately seeking immediate cash preservation, what are they so intent on everybody signing COS08, since that would bring them no immediate cost reduction...?
Don't sign anything. Wait. Ask questions, ask for more time, wait for the Aoa message.
