I own a small business. I run it like a liberal.

Four weeks paid leave every year. Group insurance. SEP IRA's for qualified employees. One full month's salary as a holiday bonus. Etc., etc., etc. Having lived in Europe for several years, I tried to replicate the model over here, on my own. Create a favorable work/life balance, and you'll have a dedicated employee for life; that was my philosophy.

In other words, I had been quite generous with my money. I shared it and my professional success with my employees.

Until last November. That's when I had a change of heart. You see, all but one of my staff of voted for Trump. How do I know? Like so many Trumpians, they loudly celebrated it.

So, effective January 1st, the paid leave was reduced to ten days. No more SEP IRA's. Time clocks were added. There will be no bonuses in December.

If you don't believe in hand-outs, if you scorn those who receive entitlements, rest assured, I will no longer offer these "un-American" privileges to you at the workplace. I only wish you had told me earlier, so I could have kept my money in my treasury and treated you like the willful serfs that you proclaim yourselves to be.
      

This is an interesting thread. LOL

Honestly,
that sounds really ****ed up and hypocritical to me. And sad. And paternalistic.

Either you stand up for your principles, which should be universal, or you don't. And you clearly don't.

If you think reasonable working conditions should be a right, it should be so for everyone. You don't get to judge and punish certain people for their beliefs. Employers should not punish their employees for their political views and what they do in the ballot box. That shit goes both ways.

Way to let divide and conquer win.

14. I see your point and admit to more than a bit of shame for what I've done
I've compromised my beliefs to punish the beneficiaries of my generosity.

They're not being vilified for voting for Trump. Their workplace is still comfortable and their wages higher than market.

They just don't get the goodies for which they rail about against others.

If even one of them realizes that what they want done to America has just been done to them, then my shame will evaporate and it would have been worth it.

I appreciated the benefits afforded me in Europe and never took them for granted. I offered my employees the same...but they took it for granted. Their loss.

Before this one goes away ...

16. Anti-Worker ****ery?
For limiting vacation time to significantly MORE than what other businesses offer? For tracking work hours with a time clock? For failing to fund SEP IRA's that would displace over $100,000 in revenues to parties who would deny the same to their employees if the tables were turned? When no other small business within 100 miles offers such largesse?

Surround yourself with Trump fanatics as employees, and get back to me with that.


LOL!!  Cripple fight!!!

18. Indeed. Thanks for your understanding.

Those peasants will be dismissed one by one if Trump's economy buries us. Their choice, their future. I'm shoring up for the coming storm. Under Obama, we thrived, and the gifts were plentiful. Under Trump, I have grave concerns, and will not sacrifice myself and my family's future under the circumstances.

The benevolent big shot Mr. Ected created a workers paradise for the proletariat but they bit the hand that feeds them by voting for Trump so he snatched it all away from the ingrates.

3. Have you made it clear why you did this?

I think that's the important part. Getting them to understand what they were taking for granted. You did those things because you thought it was the right thing to do, not because others were doing it or because it was expected. How have they adjusted?
Stop treating this BS story like it's true, fool.

The smooth, sophisticated, continental Mr. Ected is just giving those unsophisticated proles what they deserve.

i have to call bull on that.
either he is lying, or his 'bizness' is selling drugs.

a business owner would lose his best people if he went all draconian after just one Trump supporter.
when even other DUmmies call you out for being am a$$, you know your bouncy is in trouble.

with a real business, as long as the employee does his job, it doesn't matter who he voted for.
zero believability...zero bongs.

however there IS one thing we can lean from this. Liberals cannot be trusted with power.

B.S. story

1) No Trump voters would be high fiving themselves unless in a group by themselves. 99% of Trump voters kept to themselves after the election so offended snowflakes wouldn't initiate a confrontation.

2) No Trump voters who worked for a flaming liberal would dare to high five themselves in said flaming liberals presence especially if that liberal owned the business.

3) Said liberal must be seriously overcharging customers to provide that level of bennies and remain in business.

Negative 2 bongs for trying to make himself look important

27. That's crap
 
Sorry but it is.

You don't treat your employees how you do based on THEM. You treat them how you treat them based on your own beliefs. To do anything else shows a sorry lack of maturity.

The childishness that it takes to react in business the way you describe is appalling. If you really do own a small business I hope you are rightfully ashamed of your little snit and straighten up. You have the ability to be a light in the darkness rather than a reactionary selfish child.

Yes I'm being harsh. I own a business and know better. I'm also within a few years of the end of my lifespan and don't have the time or the patience to play nice anymore.

Be a liberal. Do the right thing regardless of anyone else's ideas.

I think this has been well covered.  On the Internet no one knows you are a dog.

As for the tantrum had the DUmmy been telling the truth, employers offer benefits because it is good business to retain good employees.  That USED to by why benefit packages were offered until such benefits became the REAL corporate welfare, just FROM not TO.

The DUmmy betrays himself by thinking that people will stick out any job no matter what an asshole the owner is.  That is true for the DUmmy who, lacking any skills, must take any job that will pay him.

This is pure bullshit.   Free market competition would bury someone paying grossly inflated W&B.  There's always someone around the corner ready to cut the price.

Oh baloney! That primitive doesn't know how to spell "Articles of Incorporation", much less how to go about obtaining them.

Besides, anyone who runs their business like a liberal would be far too busy hiding from creditors to have time to post on a political site.

Nope, he remains an enigmatic primitive, probably because the business doesn't exist, never existed.
