A 30% pay cut, regardless of the final number, is definitely a statement on non-confidence. People shouldn’t let class envy get into this, if your boss offered to let you stay at a 30% pay cut assuming the company wasn’t in dire financial straits you’d probably be a little miffed.

Depends. If I was the highest paid in my profession and was making 200% more the others in my field were making, a 30% 'cut' might still be higher then I could get elsewhere.

Absolutely! Speculation is that if Torre continues to coach, he’ll go to St. Louis. How I wish KC could come up with money to lure him here - that would be great.
