Fair and reasonable
Yes, we know about Next IP - and yes, Telstra is very good technically.

Do what the execs would do...
I work for IBM in the US. Here, the execs in Armonk take from the company and sit around figuring ways to take more from employees, every year. We lose more every year. They just announced a 10 percent pay cut for my people, starting Jan 1, 09. It is all about stock option for these people. Strike. - Posted by Anonymous on IBM strike could happen Thursday

They can literally turn out products, gain significant markets before big companies can. - Posted by Anonymous on Aussies cash out in YouTube buy
