[quote=justme]Was the total paperwork and aggravation for opting out worse or better than for opting in, you think?
What I really hate is the crappy $10 settlements I get for participating in some stock fraud lawsuits. Too much work, although they have improved now with more online entry. The one I hated the most was the one where they made me fill in lots of crap and then eventually I did not qualify because I had sold short. Why did they not tell me that up front, I would have known. Bastards. It’s not like the brokers they got the transaction data from did not know it was a short sale.[/quote]
I don’t know. I really didn’t think I was entitled to anything because I wasn’t ever hired up in the bay area by any of those employers up there, and so I doubt the collusion that went on up there was impacting my wages down here in San Diego. Afterall, apparently I was making well above what many engineers were saying on a previous thread was “unobtainable” for engineers down here in San Diego.
