what is wrong with todays business man ?

I am not sure how the rich stay rich, have you ever wondered? they seem to be the planets stupidest people, Rich business owners may have started out smart but over the years they have become just plan dumb, so much for "WEALTHY IS HEALTHY", here is the reason I think Rich people are stupid...and these are my thoughts...

when I say rich I mean mainly people who own businesses across the country,and over seas, now I have to exclude Donald Trump, the only name that comes to mind because I have read about him I met him once in New Hampshire when I was younger he seems to me as a very smart man with morals or at least better then most wealthy men's his standards are way above the rest in today's business world ,he is at the top of the food chain, when compared to the number of other wealthy people that in this world only he comes to mind..

1.Rich Business owners and most of the managers that are business watch dogs for the most part treat employees like shit, they act as if they are the under belly of their business,when in fact they are what can make or brake their business but how are they thanked ? they offer them little or no health care,little or no time off, most offer time off but mostly without pay,some vacation a week after a year, they offer no profit sharing, or very little , 401 k plans don't mean squat when there is not good health Insurance offered, you have to wait in most cases years before you can cash them in, and if you do manage to cash one early they come with tax penalties,and fees its only good for retirement not emergency money, you never get out of a 401 k that you invest unless you are ready to retire and,without good health care chances are you won't live long enough to see that money.

2. Business owners and operators are over working their employees to a point no one wants to come to work anymore, with VERY little or no incentives they have to come to work they are forced to they need to live and pay bills but if they had a choice,why should they? In many cases these companies are not offering any over time and their managers are standing by punch clocks to make sure you are not paid a minute more then your worth so they can get that bonus pay for saving the company money.they are laying off or mostly forcing out others in the company and expect you to do the work of two sometimes three people,same pay more work no over time.

3. today's business owners and their operators have lost sight of what makes a business run and operate its very simple..A. Pride in your work...b. Principle, do what you say you will do and stand by it...C. respect for the PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR YOU.
by the way a.b.and c. costs nothing , D Incentives for a 100 dollars of good health Insurance you pay for the company pays for half E. competition be GREAT at what you do not just do as much as you can when you are there and then get out..F. employee appraisal sit down with someone and tell them they are doing a good job,give them something to improve on and then let them know they are Valued, today a company would go into dry heaves if they had to tell someone that they are doing a good job that would make the rich business man scared that an employee might take that for a good opportunity to ask for a raise, can't have that!!!


the days are gone when a company thought of you as "family" or cared about your kids being sick, your mom or dad dieing or you getting sick, and this is where today's business man are lost confused or just plan stupid, when confronted with these personal problems, he or she acts like they have just entered a three legged special Olympics race, and says well we have a health plan it might cost you 100 dollars a week and there is a 1000 deductible and a 401 k plan for every 500 dollars we give a hundred ,what more do you want??? and the stupidest thing is some business owners are making people quit so they don't have to pay unemployment piling more and more work on them, making their jobs so hard or imposable they have little or no choice but to quit or look for another job, and cutting their hours from full time to part time , now how cheap is that...that's not only cheap but it gives a new meaning to scrooge, are there no work houses? are there no prisons?

we need to get back to the 80's when business were not just businesses they were an extended family and treated you that way too, when they cared about the quality of your life and your kids and not the quantity of there product, workers tend to work harder and stay longer when they are treated with respect and not treated like they can be replaced, by monkeys...smarten up stop drinking from the "I am a dumb ass greedy prick fountain" and get back on track, before the only ones that will want to buy your products ARE monkeys..
