We were all very pleased until we found out the company

got 1.5
million for the cable.Sounds generous to me, if you were an employee.

I would consider 50% generous and 33.3% to be divided by the crew
fair, less than 1% for the entire crew ****ty. We were under no
obligation to salvage.


Jeeze Joe, you live in the most litigious country on the planet, you
should have sued. Just because you used company equipment, and did it on
company time, shouldn't mean that the company owns what you recovered.
Try using that argument on De Beers.
