Actually, though, now that you mention it, we do have to fix your pay. We're going to give you a 10% cut. Really sorry, things are tight, and during these troubling times, we all need to make sacrifices. Also, we stopped paying into your 401k. Breaks over, get back before we dock you 15 minutes for every 3 minutes late.
If you pay me the absolute minimum amount that you're legally required to, I'll do the minimum amount of work I can get away with without being fired.
Imagine your employer paid you a real living wage, gave you fair & paid annual leave, regularly thanked you for your contribution, and generally made you feel valued. You'd respect them and feel pride in your work, you'd definitely be more likely to give 110% effort.
Work culture is rotten, you're just a nobody to your employer. I'm speaking on my own experience anyhow.
I also want to point out the effort vs output difference. A 100 -> 100% output requires more than 10% input increase in effort, so your pay should be more than that
Oh gee, pointing out that this community is a dumping ground is whining? Get out of here.
Other communities need content and they don't get it when a) everything is posted here and b) it all gets mindlessly upvoted. Might as well get rid of communities and have one big trash pile since you and others don't care.
People like you apparently need to be reminded, and so I will. Now buzz off.
Edit: I almost forgot to add that it's damn sad that other non-meme communities have more memes than the bloody meme community.
