Default Re: Saving Money Ideas Degrading?

This was very big news here. Even most of the local media said things like "saving money isn't bad, but . . ." Many of the people receiving the list had just taken 40% pay cuts. There's also boatloads of tension about cuts that management should be taking. The list itself isn't degrading, but the idea that "you just took a 40% pay-cut, you can offset that by not getting your nails done and dumpser diving" was offensive in an already tense situation.
