    He’ll be laid off in 2 weeks for asking for a raise, as workers should be there for the love of their job and not the paycheck, per the capitalist owner who would drown a bus full of orphans if it lowered their tax bill.

      We once had a remote town hall meeting for our department, and the VP had asked everyone if they had any questions about anything. My close coworker had asked about raises and a few other things since it was the start of not getting yearly raises anymore. The VP answered appropriately (not give any answers and change the subject). Later that day my coworker told us he was pulled into his bosses office and questioned about why he did that and if he was trying to put our VP in an uncomfortable position. So the ask any questions part was just a formality, and I guess not to be taken seriously…
