I bet that as you consider this question, your first thoughts turn to money. And it only makes sense, since money is the most obvious and common form of payment in our culture.
But there are many other ways to be paid for your work, and some of them may be more important to you than financial payment. Given the right conditions, it's possible to go from a $40,000-a-year job to a $35,000-a-year job and consider it a raise. How? By getting an "emotional salary" increase – as author Howard Figler might put it – in the process.
Hells no. Your not working why would they pay you. Your on there leash. (TUG,TUG) Hey come back faithful employee.
Not the week we are furloughed
