Sick and tired of people complaining about how much AC pays

estaban2501 @estaban2501 (52) • United States 8 Mar 08

Sorry but I need to rant for a moment. I am sick and tired of people complaining about declining offers and how they hate the Performance Pay. I guess people can't see the big picture. The performance pay is a good thing! Why?...
