15. You don;t understand
My compensation is based upon working an 8 hour day, like most people. Then I get a bonus. That amount is based upon going beyond the call of duty. If I say no, thats fine. I don't get fired and I don't get lots of flack. However, I don't get a bonus. Last year my bonus was over twice my annual salary. My wife and I depend on it to live. This is the type of job I have. saying no is not an option if I want to keep the lifestyle I have. I often have to fly to some part of the country on a moments notice. That too is something I can refuse to do. People here refuse all the time. However, I have financial responsibilities to my family. I want to keep my house and give my family the best I can afford.
