Why should any of us care if the Patriots cut the salaries of some of their employees? Especially if there is less work for them to do, which will certainly be the case if there is indeed a prolonged lockout. I am sure a lot of people in this forum suffered the same fate, if not one which is far worse, over the past few years.
Wow. Where's the holier than thou crowd now? Whenever some dare to criticize the Kraft's they are routinely slammed here. Especially me for example.
In this case my job is not on the line, but I've been in that position where my job was dependant on the abilities of others to get their heads out of their asses.Spoken like somebody whose job is not on the line.
I assume PFW will go on publishing so those people aren't seeing a reduced load. But take a groundskeeper who normally would prepare the practice fields everyday in July and August, not to mention getting the actual stadium ready for exhibition games. If there's no football (or practices) and he's sitting on his ass, I can't really begrude the team for cutting his pay.Hey, I agree, somewhat. In the case of, say, a receptionist, if she is awesome versus another who is merely adequate, can you tell? The damage of losing many employees to a better job during the lock out, is minimal.
Those few jobs where talent matters, say PFW writers, are much fewer.
For a lot of people, there is a huge difference between March 31st and April 30th. The difference is that the schedule comes out during that time period so those who are always going in with a couple fellas who take certain games won't get that help. And, of course, this year even after the schedule comes out, it will still be tough to get others to come in with a game or two.I'm a season ticket holder (4 seats) and I will send my check in this Friday. Due dates, whether it's on 3/2, 3/31 or sometime in April or even May is the same thing. It's a prepayment for an event in August or September-February so the due date is irrelevant as I see it.
