UPDATE:
Potential resolution is in sight. Local management has finally contacted me and we'll be scheduling a meeting over the coming weeks. Until that time I do not wish to pursue this issue publicly any further. After the meeting I'll be making a new statement based on the outcome of our discussions.
I'd like to take this time to both thank those of you who have supported me in this matter and to apologize to those who've been inconvenienced by this thread. I still however stand by this thread and my opinions, regardless of how others may choose to view them. It's just unfortunate things weren't settled more quickly, as much of this could have been avoided. However, I do believe that at this time management is finally ready to have a real dialogue and I'll honour that by saying no more on the matter for the time being.
I look forward to moving in a new and positive direction from this point, as long as that direction benefits both parties involved.
Cheers,
Matt
