Scandal-plagued Barclays bank raises bonuses after axing thousands of jobs

1. Well of course, thats the game

This is how they are messing around here with Canada Post. They screwed around with the actual services, spent a few billion on mechanizing which has to then be paid for. So suddenly they've juggled the books and can claim no profit therefore not give bonuses to the employees. Then based on that they start canning the workers, but management of course still gets bonuses but instead of being based on profit, its based on how many hours they can cut. It doesn't matter that its now taking 2+ weeks to get a letter across the country as customer service no longer has any priority whatsoever. The only priority is getting rid of workers.

What the middle management who is so gleefully following orders fails to realize is that they are next in line for the axe.
