[QUOTE="Mugarolla, post: 1460580, member: 8481"] It's a business decision to pay time and a half and double time for today? No it is not. You are losing money. You are losing a crapload of money. It is a PR decision. This employee did not just cause the company $40K. This is a company made up charge that they put on the centers books. He cost the company the amount of money it takes to fix the damage to the vehicles. Probable less than a quarter of that $40K. And I am glad to see that you got your figures right this time. None of that $40K goes to covering dented auto parts. Whether it costs $1 to fix them or $100K to fix them, this mythical $40K does not change. I know more than you think. I know that each center is given a budget and run like a separate business. I know that these "charges" for accidents makes Center Managers lie, cheat and steal so that they do not go over budget. I know their bonus is partly based on these numbers. I know that we cannot get uniforms ordered during the first few weeks of January because the center has not made any money yet for the year to pay for these uniforms. I know that if the centers don't keep up on their supplies and don't have enough on hand to get them through these weeks in January that they are SOL because the center has no money to buy office supplies. Should I go on? [/QUOTE]
