    Five days off without pay vs. 52 weeks off without pay, followed by 52 weeks off without pay, followed by (lather, rinse, repeat).

    Better vote "Yes!"

    I thought this was going to be a thread about a paper where all the reporters had gotten the same haircut for charity.

    I thought this thread was going to be about the entire staff being so enraged, they all announced they were going to get a fucking haircut.

    I thought this was a thread about Pioneer Press employees who started charging customers for haircuts because the company wasn't making enough money selling papers.

    I thought the Pioneer Press had made a haircut code much like a dress code.
