10 Top Reasons You Should Work for Me for No Pay

There’re 10 reasons why business leaders think you should work for them for free, and 1 brain based reason why it’s not such a great idea.

Some employers think workers should work for them for nothing, or close to it, because in their minds, employees …

1. Should be happy to be part of a cutting edge profit-building business in the first place.

2. Speak, lead, fix stuff - that anybody can do - unlike big cheese jobs that need pay to keep.

3. Should understand leaders live in tough times and they must risk your salary - just to make a profit.

4. Can see that unemployment is high and you are still workingcheapskate.jpg, aren't you?

5. Have not been there long enough to deserve any pay yet.

6. Are a dime a dozen and there’s more where you drifted in from, so don't forget that.

7. Probably don’t need money anyway, if you are so good at what you do.

8. Are too old and you could lose the pay check before you hit the bank.

9. Are too young and haven’t yet learned to value a hard earned dollar.

10. Don’t deserve pay anyway, according to boys at the top who could fire you at any moment.

Firms like Commendo Software found a solution to hiring people without pay at first. A brain based way to grow workers, talent and business profit at the same time, is to rewards people’ intellectual creativity and expertise with great incentives that will also prosper a firm's efforts, through loyalty from expert human capital.

Oh yes … the brain based reason workers cannot work for you for nothing. They need brains to do your work well, and without money the bill collectors rewire their brain cells, and then food runs out so their brains shut down completely - before your results are in.

In contrast to the no pay problem, workers' brains leap to the respect and integrity of fair pay. They dance to creative incentives you work out with them, that show how you value and cultivate employee talents, even in your start-up efforts.

Profit-sharing weaves in a winning opportunity to grow and prosper top business opportunities together – with the best talent alive in your pool, and sustainability visible in theirs.

What’s been your experience?

You have to be a great manager and a natural born leader to make people feel this way!

Good point, Jean Paul, and many managers may not realize that workers often see through their unfair guise:-) and want to do less for that business if they feel they are paid poorly. So it can work against a business in the long run. What do you think?

there are the reasons. there are a lot of people who fit the description. i can't understand. i always keep my employees happy. this way they're motivated to do a good job. if i'm happy, they're happy.
