yeah...i didnt mean money makes up for having a shitty work environment...
i meant that saying "oh we value you so much" doesnt make up for being paid peanuts...
two sides of a coin. i guess i was thinking along this line because a friend of mine who works extremely hard for no money, discussed the situation with his boss, and the boss said, "oh well dont underestimate the value of working on these projects"
was a total joke, considering its basically a data entry company.
also friends of mine who work in retail get crappy wage (thats ok, because the marginal productivity is low) but then have to turn up for unpaid work meetings and get shafted on overtime...just because they get the priveledge of selling clothes.
so theres companies that always try to do things on the cheap, and sell the work environment angle, and theres companies that have crummy work environments and just try to pay their way out of the problem.
you can always just print out the RGB byte values onto paper with a laser printer...and then you have a *forever* copy of your digital print...
just manually type it back in 100 years...
