    Correct, no business. That same business will lay you off in a heartbeat if they can. Businesses do not care about you.

      No that’s what Angelosaxton (American) companies are about.

      Most privately owned companies don’t care about making as much profit as possible. They want a healthy company that can pay them their salary and save up money for their pension.

      Also, not true in my case.

      They do care and have shown on numerous occasions my supporting me when I have needed it and instilling in us that we come first and the business is secondary.

      Like the owners literally do the same work as us and are far more accommodating than they have to be for us.

      How else would you get a pay rise and a reduction in hours, able to work from home when having car trouble, not having a good mental health day fine take it off, etc. We also don’t have any targets or KPIs and don’t actively seek new work as our clients are loyal.

        I cede my point. I knew I was laid off for being a piece of shit, I just knew it.

        Sorry, I’m not doing great these days.
