Many veteran employees have shared with me their willingness to accept a package if one was to be offered. I, too, would be more that happy to receive a package. Of course, as things go, those that want it most will not be impacted by this reduction.
This is what bothers me the most. There are enough people who want to leave that we could avoid layoffs altogether. And yet, here we are. Why not let people volunteer? Give me one good reason why not.
