[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1084624, member: 14668"] We earn what we do today because those who came before us did [B]not[/B] accept a two-tier wage system when it was offered to them. We owe those who came before us a [I]debt of gratitude[/I] for saying "[B]no[/B]" to a two-tier wage system. [B]We pay it [I]back[/I] ...by paying it [I]forward[/I]. [/B]I'm putting my money where my mouth is on this one. I have 26 years in, I hit PEER 80 and retirement eligibility in another 4, and the easiest thing for me to do would be to vote "yes" on a two-tier offer that keeps me at top dollar while screwing over the guy who will be getting hired to replace me. But the thing is...once I retire, I still have to be able to look at my face in the mirror every morning for the rest of my life. I [I]wont[/I] be able to do that if I willingly crapped all over the guys who are behind me by sticking them into the lower half of a two-tier system for their entire career. [/QUOTE]
