PALM LATITUDES

San Francisco attorney Richard Such has written an initiative to put into law the conditions of rewarding the elite with a six-week paid vacation (“Wishful Thinking,” by Alan Rider, Sept. 15). While such a vacation sounds fine, what will the “conditions” that declare you eligible for such a vacation do to the sense of job camaraderie? And how will employers justify the morality that employees who don’t have high school diplomas have to work while those who do can take a long vacation? Such has written an instrument of class division--to breed division at work, no less, where most of us usually find accord.
