Pay cuts

On Monday, GM also announced “a temporary pay reduction for a majority of US salaried employees” from 1 May to the end of the year, when it will be reviewed.

Executives’ pay will be cut by 10%, while “many others” will see reductions of 3% to 7%, the carmaker said.

“Other countries are currently reviewing compensation and benefits for salaried employees,” GM said.

that is such bullshit. these execs are pulling in more money in one pay period than most honest people make in a year, and we’re supposed to shrug off 10,000 jobs being lost while they take a pay cut of 10%? of what -  a billion? abysmal.

dear d-bags,

just because you’re accustomed to a certain lifestyle doesn’t mean that you have to still live under that umbrella even though the economy is in the shitter. take a moment to stop eating your lines of coke of a hookers stomach for lunch and see that your are in the upper of the upper echelon and can afford a bit more shaved off your wallet. this isn’t a matter of the economy – it’s a matter of basic human decency. you’re vacation home in favor of saving 20 jobs? the choice should be clear, however how you’re acting makes me think that it’s not in your case.

if you somehow make it out of this and keep with the same business model? … fuck off. i hope the good doctor carves out a tenth circle of hell just for you. and in a balanced world, you would be sent there immidiately from a  bullet delivered by an employee you wrongfully laid off. there are few evil people in the world, but you dickweeds account for most.

sincerely,
a biker
