You're entirely in the right, good faith's got shit to do with it, this is business. We can revisit this when every single halfway-powerful actor in the economy wouldn't send a busful of children off a cliff to make a buck, if they thought they could get away with it. When banks just let people keep their houses they're not paying on because "LOL, good faith!"

Anyone else the company owes money going out of their way to make sure those ahead of them in line get theirs first, especially the workers? LOL no, of course not. So why should a worker?
