To say that you recognize benifits as "a portion of your pay " but to suggest it is somehow dishonest for an employer "represent it as wages" is contradictory and further emphasizes my original point.


You claim it isn't you and appealing to a higher power is not taking responsibility for your and your "bargaining unit's" actions. So you feel sorry but are also unwilling to work toward change.


Am I missing something?
