BLKOPS did not get back TWICE the salary reduction. So far as hestated, he has received 1/2 & the other half will be coming around Thanksgiving time. There are millions of working people that haven't received a raise in a year or two but they are glad they are not in an unemployment line - even the US postal workers haven't received and increase in over 2 years, school teacher have to take salary reductions and unpaid furlough days, same for law enforcement personnel, etc, etc. There are many of us that have had to take a pay cut in the past but the company never made it up in the future.
