Swallow his PRIDE? Hell. I think he was right with his rant, Jim. He has skin in the game every time he goes out there. Yes, I hope the guy kicks.

He is just succumbing to management's demands and policies. Happens every day in America.

If you are working, that is.

We pretty much agree. I personally would have a hard time coming back to a job that treated me like USAC treated Ballou (which is why i never saved any $$$?)
I don't have an opinion on what he actually said, but thought he should have a right to say it without getting suspended
