Would you work for nothing to help save your company?

If the company is lossing so much money it should cut top saleries / consider cutting other saleries and if then it can't afford to operate then, it's not a viable business and should close. Sorry In a free market that's what happens. The problem is there are just too many freeloaders taking more than they deserve, and thats right from the top to the bottom...........

Who pays mortgages/rents, income tax, council tax, utilites? These organisations/companies still have to pay their staff and would't agree to a freeze on individual bills! Senior Management in any organisation are all overpaid; using the excuse you only get the best by offering a high salary. We've seen how "good" these managers have been!!! We wouldn't be in this state because of them taking risks!

I wouldn't work for free to save any comapany when you see the money that top management have fleeced off for themselves (see what the bankers have done recently, thousands of bank workers sacked and the top brass are working out how they can spend their huge bonuses) Management in this country never have to struggle themselves, and they always look after number one, so why should we ordinary workers have to work for free? Why don't the managers do the same, in fact why don't they pay into the company to come to work for a few months, they can afford it - we cannot!

Yes can some one tell me where I can get an application form? This is just another example of managment sh1tting on the workers. The fact that the CEO is aparently doing the same is irelavant, he is payed enough to do a year without pay. How is it that Ryanair and others can make a profit with low fares but BA cant with high fares? They are probably top heavy with too many chiefs and not enough indians.

From what I am hearing many people are on a four day week in industry, and people are loosing there jobs left right and centre even though, the economy seems to be balancing off it will take along time for this to bear fruit.

Despite being one of the millions out of work right now. By rights I feel I should be saying that they should be glad to have a job. What kind of job is it if it does not pay you to go to work. It is alright for someone on 61,000 a month to ask people to forego there pay, because I could live comfortably on that for at least three years. Unite is correct the reason any one goes to work is to earn money and for a boss of a company to ask people to give up their pay for however long in the current economic climate, is asking for more than loyalty and kindness.
