I second that about Mr. Menon. A true class act. A man of his word. His hand shake carried more value with me than commitments written on paper by management. I felt bad for him when his powers and authority were stripped from him.
An email or phone call to Mr. Menon never went unanswered.
I hope he enjoys the rest of his golden years when and Mr. Menon retires.
On the flip side, I too have received all pay that was due me when I mustered out.... unused vacation, sick, and loyalty bonus.
