It is quite possible that IBM created a cost-neutral solution, and will pay out the same amount of money for the same amount of work - for the company. If so, some people will gain and some people will lose (this is the nature of choices). Those who put in more than the average amount of overtime will earn more, and those who put in less than the average amount of overtime will earn less. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
