Anything to avoid a pay increase I guess. My current gig is run by "Christians" who see the thing as a mission, albeit a lucrative one. They want employees to see it the same way which is unlikely since the pay is not great. They made the mistake of having a "neutral party" speak with the group with ownership absent. It didn't go well. There have been a couple of passive aggressive emails from the top lately. I didn't think the neutral person was sworn silent. My main purpose for working there is keeping my hours under control which turns out to be in direct conflict with a recent mission adjustment. These are nice folks and they were well organized throughout the Covid ordeal but I can see they're likely losing staff in a decent job market.
All of which is to say, I'm not walking hot coals for them but I have reasonable loyalty.

That has to be the dumbest damn thing I ever heard of and now I wish I hadn't.
All I can think of is "And those guys' votes count the same as mine."

Worrying, isn't it?
