Work again!

There are a lot of very unhappy campers here at work today. Two jobs were reclassified. These are the two Personal Assistants to the two Top Dogs of the place.

These jobs were upgraded so they are now paid the same as the engineers, chemists and interpreters. If you think you can pay a glorified secretary the same as a mutlilingual interpeter, and nobody is going to notice, you have another think coming. When our dept requested that we as editors be upgraded to levels that are two levels DOWN from these ones, we were told there's no money for that. It's all about who you know.

And then HR and upper management wonder why staff are disgruntled. Fuck.

Some organisations seem to have a real talent for doing things like this then acting all mystified when people leave!

I've seen what you have to edit--you should be paid more than GOD
