Odin's sources are leaking

Post by Mr. Teatime »

<strong>[Company -> Update]</strong>

<b>Odin</b> of <a href="http://www.nma-fallout.com/">NMA</a> has apparantly been in contact with his 'sources' (why don't we have any of those?) about <a href="http://www.interplay.com">Interplay</a>'s situation and <b>Herve's</b> plans for it.
<br>
<br><blockquote>Evidently IPLY has paid the employees their 5/1 payroll, but in the 5/15 payroll they converted all salary to hourly and thus no one was paid for overtime, just hours. They are still getting deducted for medical, dental and optical but only medical is getting paid..
<br>
<br>Here are some more:
<br>
<br>"I understand they are going to pay the 6/1 and 6/15, but as before it will be on work hours. Vivendi was, and still is, involved in several lawsuits for paying salary employees for each hour worked with out truly converting to a hourly system where people get paid extra for more than 40 hours in a week or 8 hours in a day. It must be a French thing.
<br>
<br>As a result, Herve now several more lawsuits on his hands for not paying overtime or shorting people since inaccurate records were kept regarding work hours for salary employees, and continuing to not pay for dental and optical. You'd think he'd learn to stop cutting corners. Saving a nickel to spend a dime is the hallmark of an 80's corporate officer and only continues to perpetuate the image of an arrogant executive will thinks he knows what he doing, but doesn't.
<br>
<br>I also heard from several sources that he is opening up a very small office space in Newport Beach for the sole purpose of meeting clients. From my conversations, Herve has no plans to ever produce new products again. No more tech support, no more hints, no more message boards, nothing. The Interplay we all knew is gone, never to return. Interplay is going to be just a shell for "Herve Cean presents Fallout: Online" project."</blockquote>
<br>
<br><b>Fallout: Online</b> is such a spectacularly bad idea that it's difficult to believe <b>Herve</b> is still pursuing it.
<br>
<br>And I have a special message for <b>Herve Caen</b> as I'm sure he reads this site: <b>HERVE, <i>YOU SUCK</i>.</b>
<br>
<br>That gives me an idea. Why don't we, as a community, make a big card for <b>Herve</b>? We could all put our personal messages to him in it, and send it to the broom closet he now calls his headquarters.
