    Were they peddling the tax bracket bullshit? “If you make more than $X, then you have to pay an extra Y% in taxes [but I’m not going to mention that that’s only on amounts over $X].”

      No nothing like that, they just offered the teeny tiniest little raises when we’d had 7+% inflation so our wages were effectively set back 2-3 years.

      The ceo gave himself a $2 million bonus or something insane.

      In my country in the EU we don’t use brackets anymore. It’s just linear. In the current age of computers and magic it can be calculated with a simple press of a button.
