I did it till I found another job. I was at a 70% effenciey rate while the guy they kept that wasn't there as long was around 30%

It'd be a toughy with those circumstances. I guess I'd say there has to be atleast 2 more sorry ass bastards and to let them go.

In my situation if they came to us and said "You can take a 5% paycut across the board" or we'll let 3 people go. My first question would be "Are you letting the worthless lazy bastards go or are you going by seniority. If by seniority then yes I'd take the paycut cause I'm at the bottom. Unfortunately my company rewards laziness.
