Steve Carell gives the best acceptance speeches.

actually a majority of writers never make enough money to ever own a porsche. A 80,000 dollar sallary is paid out in small little chunks, therfore taxed more they might be lucky to see 20,000 a year. do your homework before you make silly comments!

They make above the annual household income (about 48K) in the US, not to say they deserve to be screwed over but seriously they're nowhere near living paycheck to paycheck if they manage their money.

[FunkKing]

Do you really think that's the point? Don't you think that the writers are a vital part in a huge money-making construction, who aren't seeing their fair share of the profits that they help to accumulate at the most fundamental level?

Your analogy doesn't really make sense, I can understand though why you would resent the idea of these fairly well paid people asking for more money. But they're entitled to it I'm afraid.

[Banedarkwolf]

This is rediculous, I bet non of these people actually know what its like to be underpaid and over worked. I can barely pay my bills and keep my car goin, and I put 7 years of service for our country before myself. Now I can hardly get a job at least somewhat close to where I live. Overworked and underpaid. Enlist and then Volenteer to go to Iraq or Afganastan, then you'll know what it means to be overworked and underpaid. Think of that while your waxing your Porsche!!

Steve Carell and Greg Daniels are amazing. GO THE OFFICE! I hope the strike ends soon so that all of these amazing people can get back to work.
