I'm not commenting specifically on Bates in this, btw. But I begrudge anyone who goes out and publicly complains about their salary. I don't care what job you're doing. Be a professional. If you feel (or are) disrespected, go somewhere else. It's fine to want the best deal you can get. I think we all want that. But it shouldn't be discussed publicly, and some guys do that. Which I hate.
