The problem with capital is waste, it cannot compete with honour nor ethics in the end, they rise and they fall,
If you need help you're in the wrong place.

Alberta corporation says its workers are peasant slaves

You are truely an idiot and have no fukking clue how to run a company...
What do you think training that new wood is free... then finding out if that new wood is up to the task and reliable.
One of the biggest expense a company deals with is training new employees.
Oh and if I find out that you work for me ever in the future, your fired.
I did not have time to read every post on the thread, but if the board in the first post is from a real company, they are clearly a$$holes. There is a distinct difference between appreciating your job and creating a culture of fear because times are tough. I have seen a little of this myself, cuts made for no good reason and a general manager who answers every query with the catch phrase. "You don't like working here?"
Stupidity like this will be short lived once the boom comes back and when it does, managers who use this tactic will get to see what a major exodus looks like. I appreciate my job, but I don't appreciate living under the threat of losing it.

That you reward a despot, a king, a comrade, a representative, there will always be a problem with honour and ethics. At least capitalism rewards those who have contributed to solving a problem.
That would be your lost not mine :lol:
It's a construction company, most of them are *******s.
Your right, you attract what you deserve. That's why hardly anyone stick in construction very long.
An Edmonton company has apologized after a photo of a whiteboard note telling workers they should be "thankful" for their jobs went viral.
On Monday, a Reddit user shared the picture, calling it a "sickening piece of corporate propaganda."
It reads:
Hundreds of angry commenters flocked to the company's social media accounts to vent their outrage.
Permacorp responded to the backlash Monday, saying the message "was issued without management consent."
The company said the message was "promptly" taken down.
"Issues related to that message have been handled internally. The message sent does not align with our core values of personal growth and diversity," Permacorp said in a statement.
But despite the company's apology, some wanted an answer for a more pressing question at hand.
"So did whoever wrote on the whiteboard lose their job? I heard there's plenty of people ready to replace them," one commenter joked.

Why you should be thankful for your job here at PermaCorp:
1. Our owners have wisely diversified the products and services that we offer in order to create multiple streams of income. This makes us relatively stable because we aren't relying on only one business sector to bring in money. i.e. only oil or only residential.
2. There are tens of thousands of people unemployed in Alberta right now.
3. Since Christmas I regularly come to work and find hundreds of resumes in my inbox. Sometimes more than one thousand. If I need to find another employee it is so easy. Be thankful that you are one of the lucky ones that already work here!
The note included an arrow pointing to a copy of a Calgary Herald article titled "With 40,000 jobs cut, more layoffs still to come for Canada's energy industry."1.

Looks like the guy who wrote it might be the only one worth keeping arround :lol:
You're Fired..
As I said you're the father from managerial staff.. you're to dumb to be a boss.
