Why do you guys have this constant desire for wild abstract theories, grand philosophical discussions about wages for managers vs workers or other moral debates????
Can't you guys be ( just once!) be practical???
It is what it is.
The company has announced a cost cutting program.
Is it fair? Reasonable? Who cares!!!
We will not get the same offer again, we might possibly face cuts, we are losing out as we speak. Period.
I told you so.
PS Captain Dart, I am not a trainer, and never was. Nevertheless, I do not blame anyone in training for our own failures to sign a pay increase when the sun was still shining.
