My only question is whether or not your dad is the exception or the rule? The perception is more and more business owners are in it to make as much as they can at the expense of their employees. We are seeing many reports of layoffs but how many reports of upper management pay cuts to keep lower level employess employed? Loyalty works both ways and when business owners are not looking out for their employees the gov will step in and I think that is what we are seeing now.
