> There is no acknowledgement that "not motivated by money" and "not motivated by more money" are two very different things. Not only that, but also, I think, personally, I am more motivated by fairness rather than by specific amount of money. I could imagine myself working for 30% less with no complains, but if you're going to give that slacker over there a 10% more than what I get, I will be unhappy. Curiously, this never appeared in any questionnaire that I had to fill in asking about my motivation. And note to the author: Please, don't "optimize corporate environments for the High-Performance Employee", in fact don't optimize at all, just let the people who know what they are doing to work. I am sure there is a more useful way you can contribute to the society.
