Cafeteria? Now you're really making me feel bad! Oh well, I get free checks :) (of course who uses checks anymore!)

I support the two z/VM systems here. Period. I don't write business apps. Do you? Why do I have to pay an annual free for my United Airlines VISA card, eh? Do you support that? Why can't you change the code so that mine is free and provides 5 miles for every dollar I change on it? Well, I'm sure you get the idea. And I suspect that you were just grousing in general. :-) BTW, our own benefits have been cut, too. The latest and most obvious example is the change from a free cafeteria(yes, free!) to a subsidized cafeteria which began Jan 1, 2006. Yes, it was a GREAT benefit that we all very much enjoyed for many years. But there are other benefits that have been reduced or eliminated here (as well higher "cost sharing", such as medical costs) just like almost every other business. It's still a great place to work, just not quite as great as it was. Mike Walter Hewitt Associates The opinions expressed herein are mine alone, not my employer's.
