They can't stand the idea of everyone having more of a bigger pie, they just have to have X percent more than the next employee even if the business suffers. Refuse to do anything that would benefit anyone working for them, heaven forbid.

Sure

Lol, first, I said within legal bounds. Those drug companies and alcohol

Ozymandias

You obviously don’t know the history of those industries.

Rodolpho

1/21/22 9:18pm

Lol. I addressed 2 of your 3 points and it is you who changed the context. Try

Ozymandias

hmm...

Rodolpho

My bad. Your horrible formatting caused me to miss when I went and looked back

Ozymandias

1/21/22 9:57pm

so, when you have no way to rebut opposing points,

Rodolpho

Mr. Rumsfield

But would it add profit? If not, why would they put resources into something

Ozymandias

Believe me, 2/3 of these folks are not worth half of what they make and they

Mr. Rumsfield

1/21/22 8:38pm

Okay? Doesn’t really answer the question.

Ozymandias

1/21/22 8:42pm

Surely you understand this, right? Maybe you’re overthinking things.

Mr. Rumsfield

1/21/22 9:07pm
