It was quite the slap in the face to those who were receiving the PLD to be told, especially in the manner in which they were told, that they would be losing it. They were told, “Don't worry. Here comes a pay raise that's going to cover the loss.” It didn't. They were told, “Oh, don't worry. There is an interim benefit coming.”
It's hard to just keep dancing around it, but things are breaking and people are breaking. This can't last forever.
