AirborneSoon: Legislation allows a company to spend $1500 on employees tax free. My comment was just highlighting previous use of the funds and asked what could be done with it.
As for the parties (nation wide) it allowed the staff to do something together, excluding those who had to work. It actually allowed the staff to work on doing something apart from the day in day out of work. Its no different with QF having their annual parties for christmas, each port love it for the reason they have something to look forward too.
If you dont have happy crew then all the mods and cons you put into online service would be fairly useless.
An over-haul over most things will need to be done to allow progression at DJ.
