Why are some employers mean?

My first job was very much like this. He even showed us a video presentation about the hunger problem in Africa to point out that we're actually "lucky". And every time a person resigns he'll say that the person is being ungrateful -- as if the person didn't earn the salary he has received during his stay in the company. He even tried blackmailing me when it's my turn to leave. This work setting is unhealthy. You brother should leave as soon as he can. He also has to accept that his remaining unpaid salary is already lost and move on to a better company. Whatever the value of it, it is still not worth it.

I think that this happens because people allow it to. I do not blame them though because I know how difficult it is to get and maintain a job now. It's a killing field out there, survival of the fittest they say. I do hope your brother finds a better job though. It's very stressful to work on a job you don't really enjoy and it becomes worse when paychecks are always delayed.

That is sad. I think he needs to find another job that makes him happy and find a company that appreciates him! I enjoy my job and they treat me well and are very understanding when things in life happen last minute.

May be this type of employers really believe deep inside their head and heart they're much clever and superior than their hired hands, so they don't have to show any well manner and common courtesy to their employees, they have to be really mean to convey the message that they are the bosses and above them all. Fortunately, not every boss/employer is mean spirited in general, only few are behaving in this way in reality. I still have some faith left for our present corporate world bosses, they are not all as mean as your brother employer.

If I where in your brother's situation, I will try to resign and look for another job. Although I understand that it is hard to find job today, having mean employers like giving late salary is not fair. Another way to stop this thing is to report them in the Labor and Employment department about this issue. Employers like them must be given warning to comply with the labor code or else they will be given necessary legal actions.

Well it is really hard to have a boos and company like that who don't give the appropriate compensation to their employees.Better find other job if possible or file complains in institution who handled this kind of case. We know that it is right of the boss or owner to do what he like to do in his company but we employees too have the rights and have the right to complain on things which are not right to us.

Personally this is not good work ethics and not acceptable. To me I would not let it go and be making some complaints somehow. There is no way anyone should ever be expected to work for someone like this. Personally, places of business need to be willing to continue to pay their people on time as expected to ever expect to get all their work they need done. But moving on while making a complaint is always a good option as well.

As far as possible i will try to honor his post and would try to please him, but he continues to complaint about my work then i have no option to approach his superior for his behavior. And if there is also same story repeats then i have no option to work as it is or to hunt for a new one.

I work in the hospital my employer trick us they dont pay our healthcare insurance and other taxes. W hen we found out the issue they close the hospital and ran from their responsibilities to us.

find a better job ASAP, send a complaint to uppermanagement or headquarters, and if theyre violating your rights of your employment agreement or contract get a lawyer and take it to a criminal or civil court. Theres a lot you can do, it all depends on where you are and what your doing.
