I don't think it's harsh, I think it's realistic. I wouldn't say that someone climbing the pay grades without realising the sacrifice required was stuipid, but definately blind. I might expect this wort of behaviour from a junior just moved into a role with higher pay and more responsibility, but definately not from a senior at that level. I expect more from senior managers.

Funchy good point. I definately agree with the amish comment. I don't know any amish, but from what I understand is they want to work for the improvement of their society. The other key thing is that they would all benefit equally from that work.
