Hmm... Perhaps you don't know that "salary cut" above means taking much less money?

I had missed the word cut. Damn it, I shouldn't be commenting while sleep-deprived!

Indeed. I guess "taking a cut" can sometimes mean "taking some of the money", so you could interpret this as meaning "I couldn't accept all that money", which as you say is the opposite of what I meant!
