Actually after reading the subsequent notes about Todd's situation, I fully agree. Its very rare to see a company apply the same cuts across board. All too often management will butcher the salaries/hours etc of the employees and give themselves substantial bonuses. It sounds like the firm Todd works for has a fair amount of integrity.
