Almost there, in time

Thanks to a concerted effort last week by shop stewards and Executive Board members (thank you, Film Roman!), we are within one percentage point of beating last year's percentage return of wage survey questionnaires, ahead of this Friday's extended deadline.

It remains to be seen whether we will beat last year's 22.9% return. Tomorrow, Monday July 18, is the deadline to contact us by e-mail or phone and ask to have the survey and the postpaid return envelope mailed to you.

You can also download the form and mail, fax or e-mail it back to the attention of Jeff Massie. We will take the form and mix it with the ones we’ve received to guarantee your anonymity.

The deadline for questionnaires to be returned to us if Friday, July 22. After that, it will take approximately two weeks to tally the questionnaires and confirm the results, which will be be posted here, on the e-mail list and website, and in the August Peg-Board. It's not too late to help your fellow animation artists, writers and workers with an accurate appraisal of wage conditions in the industry.
