......and he took a much larger pay cut than the workers.
That was the right thing to do.

WOW,,,this speaks volumes about the culture of this company. While many companies lay people off this one gives them an option to take a pay cut instead, while the CEO shows the way. Too bad this can't become contagious across the nation....

I'm not so sure that I would put much trust in what they SAY. The press release can say anything but CEOs usually do not take pay cuts.
