<p>[QUOTE="Prez2, post: 3711330, member: 93969"]The fact is that if employers treated their people well, paid them well and DIDN'T try and 'squeeze' every drop of everything out of them to begin with, business would be even MORE successful for all involved. What has happened over the past decade or so though, is that MEGA profit has become THE begin all and end all. When employers will only pay 'x' number of dollars (or put another way, "as cheap as they can get them") the old saying 'you get what you pay for' comes into play. MOST people are hard working and will put forth whatever effort needed if in return they were treated at least fairly and would be that productive employee that the employer wants. That doesn't happen though. I call it the 'Walmart attitude' of squeezing every drop of anything that the employer can profit off of that most employers have adopted. Thing is when the employer plays this game of "work hard and maybe we'll see about that 2% every other year" bs with employees, then the employee adopts the same attitude right back at them. Production suffers and everybody plays the turnover game. Scrooge McDucks? Oh my friend, there are PLENTY. I've lived it and I see it every single living day. Employers will cut their nose to spite their face every time in order to save a dollar on paper. Employers only get back what they put in most of the time. Everybody winds up trying to get over on the other. It's a sad,sad game of crapitalism that everybody is forced to play and it's shame, and it's all about GREED. Period.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
