The Bosses’ Pledge
On this day after May Day, I pledge to
1.Work my workers to the bone, to squeeze out every ounce of productivity juice and therefore help the economy.
2.Monitor MCs and warn those who take too many about contributing to the rise of healthcare costs
3.Persecute those who took TODAY off work, because they’re enjoying the long holiday that I can’t.
4.Get my workers to train and re-train, provided I can get enough subsidies to cover the cost of having them elsewhere
5.Promote my workers to a higher pay scale on the progressive wage ladder system, even though their training hasn’t made them more productive
6.Hire pregnant women provided they agree to use their maternity leave to work from home
7.Treat over-time work as pro bono contributions to the economy
8.Give all workers fancy titles and call them executives so that I don’t have to pay them for working on their day-off
9.Hire more Singaporeans, so that I can hire proportionately more foreigners
10. Give low basic pay but promise big bonuses, which will never happen because the company will never do well if I can help it
11.Pay myself 10 times more than my average worker, because that is the trend on Wall Street
12.Be a good corporate citizen and give to charity, so that I can get tax deductions and get my name in the media
13.Re-hire those above 65, but only if they are willing to accept a 50 per cent pay cut
14.Hire people on contract terms so that I don’t have to pay CPF.
15.Hire a good lawyer.
