    Hehehe. Good lawyer, good professor, decent associate dean, total Napoleon complex. People don't call him "Dick" Alderman for nothing.

    Do you get reimbursed for those 3 - 4 trips each year? Does somebody else from the office ride with you?

    I don't get paid mileage or anything, the employee that that got into the bad wreck did get mileage because his job is field work and he drove from many different sites a day.. The very few times a year I've had to drive to a meeting I've never had anyone ride with me either..

    It sounds like they are casting a wide net and not bothering to sort out those who drive as part of their job description and those who are mainly in the office.

    This is completely off-topic now. But, in this hypothetical, it'd make me feel underpaid, which is exactly what I'd be (and am). Then, I'd demand fair compensation, as I should, or else seek employment at a market rate, as I should. The company's perspective is that they'd like for me to work at a wage that is below market-rate, achieved by creating an assymetry of information. That's why the company wants to do it, why the NLRB doesn't allow it, and why I resent it -- even when I had no intention of telling anyone my salary.
