Nobody Owes Nobody A Living

My personal operational philosophy is this. If you are a working professional, the company you work in does not owe you a living; by the same token, you do not owe the company a living.

Between you and your company, there is a professional contract i.e. the company contracts you to perform a function and you deliver your expertise to the fullest abilities for the good of the company, no compromise. Fair statement?

To continue, your superiors don't owe you a living and vice versa; and you don't owe your staff a living and vice versa.

Under trying circumstances, prioritise what is best for your family and yourself, the company comes second. Nobody ask you to die for the the company. Even if you do so, the company will not say thank you.

Life is just so cold and pragmatic, lets just be realistic about the whole thing.
