if you don't like the 100,000+ your getting paid a year quit.
stop ruining nyc.
not only is your striking effecting the theaters its also affecting parking, resturants, and tourists.
people book trips to nyc months and years before to come see braodway shows. you've ruined so many tourists vacations.
many people come into nyc for shows so they have to park and they sometimes eat dinner. resturants and parking facilities are losing money too.
stop being so damn self-centered, stop ruining nyc, and let damn theatergoers enjoy the SHOWS!

It's not only about salary. Know what you're talking about before you run your mouth.

dear Zeitoujo,
why don’t you quit making 100,000+ pointless threads.
stop ruining bww.
your posts effect the minds of innocent people who might stumble on them and be forced to read them.
people have jobs are work hard and deserve to be treated fairly. both management and employees deserve to have their voice heard what ever it takes.
many people come into nyc for things besides shows. check out a monument or take a tour or [gasp] go to a museum. we have plenty of those but they do require reading and intelligence both of which you seem to lack.
stop being so damn self-centered, stop ruining bww, and be creative and find something else to do.
k.byee.

Please negotiate the issues at hand, knowing that you WILL have to compromise (as will the producers)...
...if things don't work out today, please DON'T drag your feet on setting up another negotiation meeting...
...please realize how many people (other than stagehands) are affected here (and I'm not talking about ticket holders)...
Thank you.

There’s a difference between stating an opinion and directing your comments toward someone who will never see them.
And for the record I am QUITE sure that I have not posted my feelings on this topic other than recognizing the right of the union to strike.

Why do you care WHAT I write or WHO I address it to?

I have a message too for the stagehands. Take your time and do what is right for yourselves and your Families. They are what really matter in this life. I know how well you do with negotiations will determine if the Actor's will have to strike next year. Many of them are behind you. We who love liberty and the right to stand up for what you believe are good working standards know this is something many of us still hold sacred.
Don't give up the safety and well-being of the whole Production just to make a few people happy. I'm rooting for all of you and appreciate the sacrifice you are willing to make to help keep Unions strong. Good luck with negotiations.

Folks, I don't care which side one is on in this debate, but please know what you are talking about. Please stop making everything black and white and out of context and full of crap.
And let's DO have some respect for the people involved in this dispute. I don't believe that anyone involved is "the bad guy". So, let's show a titch bit of maturity and perspective.
Thank you.

Personally, I hope they hand deliver that message to any of those stagehands walking the streets. I'd love to here what they have to tell this poor soul.
Last time I checked, Broadway isn't completely shut down so go see something else or stay home until the strike ends. How difficult is that to understand?
No matter what anyone says, the stagehands aren't going back to work until they have a contract or an agreement that the imposed work rules will be lifted. So everyone can sing and dance all they want but saying things like kbyee posted will only give them more strength to go the long haul.
Glad to here you are rooting for the team!

Posted: 11/17/07 at 8:07pmWow, Zeitoujo. Way to be a spoiled little bitch...
#18re: dear stage hands,
Posted: 11/17/07 at 8:35pmZeit....proper spelling would be nice. As well as the proper use of the word affecting. As well as the proper use of punctuation and capitalization. And good sentence structure would be good also. Just a suggestion.
