I have moments of caring. I find the work interesting, and often entertaining. I want and and depend on my paycheck for my livelihood, and many aspects of Maslow's hierarchy of needs.

If the farmers didn't get paid, how would you provide food on the table?

Which would be better? A suspension bridge designed from a highly paid civil engineer

Or a weak bridge designed by a low paid engineer.

Employees need to be rewarded for their hard work!

crappy wages provide crappy work
