Workers would rather take a pay cut then see colleagues fired
The credit crunch is uniting workers as a survey carried out by recruitment website fish4jobs revealed almost half of us expect their salary to be cut or frozen this year, but 73% of us are happy to take a pay cut rather than see colleagues be made redundant.
The survey comes after a flood of pay cuts, with everyone from Barack Obama to the BBC announcing their salary funds will be frozen for the foreseeable future.
Everyone was united on the solution for redundancies – cut the bosses’ pay! 79% thought the bosses’ pay or bonuses should be cut to halt job losses.
Other money-saving suggestions included bringing in performance-related pay schemes, introducing green initiatives around the office and cutting back on staff benefits like free tea and coffee.

British gross domestic product grew by 0.3 per cent in the fourth quarter, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) said. That was stronger than the previous anaemic estimate of 0.1 per cent expansion, which had appeared to indicate that the economy only just scraped out recession by the skin of its teeth. This has a miniscule effect in essay writing industry.

I feel the same way - cut my salary and dont fire anybody. If I would be a head of a company I would do the same for sure.

It’s good to work in the British community. When it comes to pay, well, they offers high rates compare to others but not that much.

Yeah why is it that some British people have this different attitude? I remember one book i bought from an Online Bookstore Australia based. one of their book mentioned that if you have the heart, well, think for the betterment of everyone and not for one or self only. And this is the only way to succession as it says. Thanks to http://www.978.com.au/ because i have learned a lot from their books.

As for me, i appreciate those British nationalities who have the brains to make way of investing for the future. I have heard that they are very good in web designing and web development! Is this true? Well, so far I only knew Tampa Development as the best in web designing and development and you can see it by your own eyes at http://www.tgwebmedia.com.
