CGI as in media?
CGI as in computer generated imagery, think at the most advanced level.

You're still not good at reading. I never said anyone should not have vacation days or not take them. I am saying people who do not take vacation and bring increased productivity should be rewarded greater than those who work 6 weeks less.

Companies are of course free to ask you or motivate you to take your vacation and I do believe you're obligated to take it if there is an industrial vacation which typically doesn't apply to white collar work.

Negative.

I'm sure the richest person on the planet has nothing to prove/gain.

Was it a successful attempt? Nothing stops companies from trying, are people really picking WizzAir because of how they treat their employees or because they are cheap?

The end result is that SAS is seen as even less trustworthy among the consumers in what is often presumed to be SAS' most lucrative market.
If you continue to believe it was SAS's doing then we must read different news. The unions decided to strike in prime vacation season and not in March. The union pilots kept the planes grounded not SAS. If either party really cared about the vacations of Norwegians we wouldn't have had a strike at this time a year.

Bingo!

But Branson's image was a reason to fly the airline and the same reason why VS got to be a preferred and continues to be a preferred airline for anyone that has a choice of airlines.
