Shares at the level they would be offered mean nothing, in my opinion. At senior levels, when we are talking about tens of thousands, then it is an income from dividends
British Airways has not paid any dividends for a few years now! but I take your point that share offers are worth less to the "masses". However it is still a positive benefit, and one which BASSA members were denied a voice on, because of the Union.
