She earns it, she deserves it, therefore it is owed to here, the fact that they are too greedy to give her her share of the profits is what is wrong with American values today.
She earns it? She earns the salary she accepts. She does more than what was expected of her and does not get compensated for it? She can get another job.
I do not see where you are going with this. You are not supporting a point. You are simply stating an ideology.
Which supports the point that while the pie has gotten bigger, the piece of the pie given to the lowest paid workers has gotten smaller and the piece given to the highest paid workers has gotten bigger. No country can long sustain such a huge income gap. Remember the French Revolution?
And the way she answers those calls makes money for the company and can be the difference between getting a contract or a new customer and losing that contract or customer. She helps create the profits, she deserves a share of them.
Only if she negotiates that for herself.... and if it is not offered... she has the freedom to go elsewhere.... it is not OWED to her at all ( along the same lines, it is not inherently DESERVED).... it can be offered if indeed those who make the business decisions have the willingness to have that as compensation incentive

The biggest gap in aggregate right now is between Public Employees and their private sector equivalents.
Why is it that Public Employees are being paid more and more while wages are flat in the private sector? The government has increased from 20% to 25% of GDP in a very short time - that is a BIG PIECE OF PIE!
The French Revolution was against the sitting MONARCH - a somewhat apt comparison given the attitudes of our increasingly imperial federal government.
If it's GREEDY for private sector people to wish to keep what they have earned, what do you call it when others want to take it away from them?
You want to share in company profits? BUY THE COMPANY STOCK.
I can't believe someone actually thinks that just because they have a job, they should be entitled to company profits, of some kind. WHAT A JOKE!!!
"But you gave it to me, and its mine, fair and square! I'm taking my ball and going home"
How is that for a lib response?
I can't believe someone actually thinks that just because they have a job, they should be entitled to company profits, of some kind. WHAT A JOKE!!!
And I have a question for ANYONE out there:
And years like this when my company has negative cash flow? Exactly what will that receptionist who I shared the profits with say to me when I tell her she needs to share the losses with me?
Anyone?
So what your saying is your not in favor of Immigration Reform? I agree with what you have said to a degree. But the reason jobs have left this country MAINLY because of the current tax system and its ability to punish companies for making money.
These "GREEDY" CEO's as you call them are part of the fabric that has helped this country grow by leaps and bounds in the last century. Without them you would be living in kazakastan style country without a pot to piss in. They have helped increase the wealth of this country 10 fold. I mean our poor in this country have cars, tv's, cellphones, etc... because of the business that they have formed and companies that have spun off, and spun off, etc...
Don't be mad at the "Greedy", Envy the "Greedy" and work towards being well off, or rich, or whatever your heart desires

If I were the receptionist and you truly shared your profits with me, I would take a pay cut and the loss in profits during the hard times. You share in the good times, you have to expect to share in the bad time.
I worked for United and didn't even have a choice when they cut my pay from $9.30 to $8.30 an hour. I kept working and I kept doing my job to the best of my ability (IOW, I did good, imagine making reservations and then saying to the reservationist "I never thought I'd say this to a reservationist before, but 'It's been a pleasure.'") Yep, that was one of my calls and what one of my customers said to me. My thank you for my sacrifice was them sending my job to India.
Funny how I don't have a lot of sympathy for corporations, isn't it?

Like I said before, you can share the fortunes and misfortunes of the company by buying stock. If you had an employment contract that stated you had to stay on for a specified time or pay a penalty, that might be an option. Many peolpe just leave in hard times and would stick the company.

They GAVE me company stock, part of an agreement with the union. It was worth $4000 when I got it. I kept it, didn't sell it and the company tanked, when the stock reached $500, they bought me out. I didn't have a choice in that either. Guess I should have sold when it was $4000 rather than holding on to it for my possible retirement.
Nope, no sympathy for corporations here.
