As the CFO of this business that employees 140 people, I have
resigned myself to the fact that Barrack Obama will be our next
President, and that our taxes and government fees will increase in a BIG
way.
To compensate for these increases, I figure that the Clients
will have to see an increase in our fees to them of about 8% but since
we cannot increase our fees right now due to the dismal state of our
economy, we will have to lay off six of our employees instead. This has
really been eating at me for a while, as we believe we are family here
and I didn't know how to choose who will have to go.
So, this is what I did. I strolled thru our parking lot and
found 6 Obama bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have decided
these folks will be the first to be laid off. I can't think of a more
fair way to approach this problem. These folks wanted change; I gave it
to them.
If you have a better idea, let me know.
