    Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That’s why I poop on company time!

      Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime.
      That was a poem for a simpler time.
      Boss makes a dollar, I don’t make jack.
      That’s why I riot - to seize the means back.

    30 minutes? Amateur. I once spent a while shift on the shitter, read a whole book and the sound of velcro when I got up at last. Ah, good old times.

    Obviously with your ingenuity and all that you contribute to the sewage system, your deserve to be payed equal to the CEO of your company, especially for all the long breaks and lack of interest you bring to the work force every day.

        I don’t disagree with that. Only with the notion that everyone deserves CEO-status. I worked in a company like that and it was horrible. Talk about nothing ever getting done - you can’t run a company with 34 CEOs, all chiefs and no braves to do the actual work.

          I can definitely agree with you there!

          I still do think that there should be MUCH less of a discrepancy between how much the C-suite gets compensated relative to the people actually “getting shit done”.

            I’ve been on the “one of the braves doing the actual work” end of things at a company where we literally had 34 managers and 3 actual customer service people. It was horrible. All the managers did was hold meetings, and then tell us how we three could work harder. And then start farming us out to field reps who would call us all day long with emergency needs for mailers, equipment, parts, etc. It was really a disaster. Turns out most of the managers were “friends” of each other who hired each other just to be managers and not have any actual responsibilities. So yes - I firmly agree there needs to be more equitable pay for those who really do the hard work.

      Just as much as CEOs (or any C-levels) deserve an exorbitant amount of pay for their ingenuity of sitting in meetings all day and basing decisions on pretty graphs made by others? Oh, and when the company “doesn’t do well” it’s the employees’ fault! Another round of layoffs WHOOO!
