Jill,
I know. It's truly sad. It is this God forsaken morals and ethics thing my dad planted in me. EARN your money! I even feel truly compelled to help my CEO & Execs. really make this company work. So I'm always right there giving them my advice.
(Me? Go figure...) I feel that if I can make the bottom line better....I get a better cut of the cake. Oh, yeah, did I mention I work for an awesome company that still gives bonuses based on REAL work. They give ample raises and take care of their folks. We have flex time and variable work schedules. I'm a 7:30 - 3:30pm. OThers work 8:00-7:00 4 days..Take Friday. It's all what works for your job. It's a nice little set-up. The owners are mid-40s and have raised this place to a whole new level. It's nice to know that as an employee, your opinion DOES count and each one of us is appreciated and shown that in a tangible way.. Not just the customary..Good Job Bob Blow Off!...LOL
Couldn't ask for much better than that. Darn nice luxary to have in this current day. So, Yeah! I work my butt off for those ladies(& gentlemen---not many there---Big girls club thing)....
C-ya..Jenn
