<SNIP Keith's commentary>
Good summary. Yep. Have the next Johnson negotiate hard, and lowball
them. Have the johnson make it clear that he is doing this, because he has
heard they have been indiscrete. Indiscrete runners can be a liability, and
therefore have less of a pay scale.
Remember it is hard to stay untarnished and on top, make one mistake
and folks don't forget. I've actually seen a tact like this used to also
enforce a racism feel on some runs to CalFree. We were told we would
have been paid more, if there weren't so many metas in the party.
Supply and Demand. There is a small pool of top talent, they demand top
pay. They can negotiate for extra perks because they're in demand. If
your not in that pool, you have less room to negotiate, and there may be
no perks.
