HELLO BROTHERS AND SISTERS!!! The Reverend Cnubelevit here to make you feel better about your situation by informing you of ours. Average work week WAS: 50-70 HOURS. IS: 32-38 hours. (not salaried). In a memo sent down from the ALMIGHTY upper eschelon "Any associate who has been employed for less than 3 years will have a reduction in man-hours to less than 40 hours weekly." Let me put this in perspective. SHI**Y PAYCHECK. Imagine your pay is cut in half and then your work load is increased by a third. "We have to increase productivity and be a team." (verbatim from our managers).As I recall "team" means everone working together to accomplish a goal that will benefit the entire "team", not benefit a select few. I could have sworn that SLAVERY had been abolished. Guesssss NOT!!! I guess it's going to be necessary to bone up on my early-American slave lingo like: Yeassah Bossman, lordy-lordy-lordy, ha-mercy massa, etc. (no offense to anyone since we are all slaves to the "MAN"). Well, if y'all 'scuse me, I gots to goes an' fix me sommn ta eats. "The sun shines bright on my ole' Kentucky home..............".

If it is at all possible, I would like to see workers like you get together to form their own company, in competition with the slavemaster. Don't steal their trade secrets, but don't sign forms saying you won't go into competition or "steal" their customers. Hair stylists take their customers with them from salon to salon. Why shouldn't the rest of us?
