Big firm bonuses 'back to normal'



Bonuses at Britain's largest listed companies are almost back at pre-financial crisis levels, according to a survey by business advisory firm Deloitte



BBC



In case you didn't know, there used to be an understanding that the owner/president/CEO of a large company would draw no more than 20 times the average salary in the company... These days it's not unusual for this to be 200 times! Now we all want good bosses and they do deserve to be paid well but come on. They tell you they NEED this money. Yeah, that's right NEED.

It's a shame [in the real sense of the word] that they don't adopt the Salvation Army's motto:



'We help the needy - NOT the greedy!'

When I worked in commerce these greedy pigs were known as "LOMBARDS" after that well known financial institution. Well, that is what they thought it meant but to the worker bees it meant "LOMBARDS" (Loads Of Money But Right Dickheads)
