The logic holds. They probably would have left for a cut in pay. You come across as a shitty person on here, not surprising you would be shitty to work for.

Do quote where I've said I've mistreated any employee.

Jumping ship for +1%?

I had a trucking company tell me once that there are a significant number of drivers who hop companies every 6 months and some have worked for this company multiple different times. They leave with notice so no hard feelings.
Reason? It takes the IRS that long to track them down for alimony and child support. When they start getting docked, they bail.

You lost the bid for their labor. Should have thrown more pizza parties.

Hmmm..funny how the case went from plural to singular as people have pointed out what an a-hole you appear to be.

I mean... I'm far from the only employer this has ever happened too. But, I can't argue against the stories yall want to make up in your heads.
Tell me a bedtime story? It's getting late.

Again, if you treat people as expenses, don't be surprised when they feel expendable.

Here we go, more vague statements that won't be backed up with any actual examples.
You just accidentally reinforced my original statement of there not being many good companies to work for with that claim, but hell, I'll give you a pass on that one.
