80% of a salary is better than 0%. Blackmail or no blackmail. Airlines the world over are culling a lot more people.
MK could have implemented this a tad better though to put it mildly. But hey no HR department so are you suprised!!
A strike would be interseting though... would MK, PP and the Doc listen or would the Doc just shut it down as it is costing him a LOT of money right now.
