Now that was funny, seriously funny..

The profit share has for a long time now been used in place of a pay rise. TCK in one of his motivating speeches said it "makes good business sense to keep the sallaries low and award a good profit share during the good years than to pay higher sallaries that effect the bottom line during the bad years" In other words let the employees carry the pain during the bad years... Given that this was a good year, you can guess the rest.
