I'm not saying CEO's and management shouldn't have their traditional responsibilities. What's wrong with a windfall to make sure employees are protected. If a layoff is needed, clearly the CEO's leadership had issue

I appreciate your concerns and I think you're doing the right thing! May I ask which countries you're referring to? In USA, I know immigrants who are awarded medallions via lottery and who take a loan and pay off their medallion -

I hope all these raises, unemployment resources, remote work and collectivization measures stick around after. Flexibility is great. What has all this coronavirus action made me feel? The virus effects everybody equally (generally there ar
