I have 21 employees in my IT department. They all make far more than minimum wage.

The average wage in my group is not yet in excess of six figures. But it is close to that.

I don’t outsource, yet. I don’t have cheap offshore labor that can do what my people do, yet.

But it is people like you that make it impossible to continue hiring within the U.S. Who are you to tell me who to hire and fire? It doesn’t make sense.

I don’t want whiners. I want people that still care about customer service. People that don’t need to be “managed” minute by minute all day.

But if my “average” required wage gets pushed up... Then according to your thinking I need to fire one or two people. I still have a budget to meet. Which people should I terminate to meet your requirements?

Exactly how did I tell you who to hire or fire?...not my business what you do. I never said anything about pushing up wages either...no idea what you are talking about.
