People suffer because they are unemployed and can't find a job or 2.) People who do have a job have to get more done with less. When someone leaves a job they are not replaced. Fewer people are actually expected to do more work and then "disciplined" or threatened when they can't get the work done. I would love to see change in this regard.
That seems true in general. I still keep up with my old employer though because I'm related to a board member and have known some of the others since I was a child. I can tell you that it is one of the most bloated and least efficient corporations I have ever heard of outside the US military. It will also make its highest gross profit ever this fiscal year. Maybe it's a Texas thing?
Thanks for this!
