We think that you are getting paid what you are worth. This after I found a ck stub from the guy I that I replaced. He made more than I did 10 years before I found the ck stub. I had the last laugh. Started my own business 6 months later. I’m still here there all gone. 15 yrs ago in April.

Given the snow in the northeast, the office was closed yesterday and open today.

Many employees still couldn't make it in, however, because many secondary roads are still impassable. HR decided to take a hard stance, requiring any employee who couldn't make it in would be required to take vacation time. Laptop or not, no telecommuting was authorized.

I needed one of my guys to get some time-sensitive customer-facing work done, and told him to telecommute.

I notified HR, who told me “Many people couldn't make it in, and were forced to use vacation time. They are still working from home, however, to meet customer needs and deadlines." What?

“We think that you are getting paid what you are worth.”

I had a boss tell me “I’d pay you what you were worth, but I don’t think you’ll work for that cheap. How does five bucks an hour sound?”

My dad - told to me when I was about 13 years old.
