5. The board of directors has decided that for the fourth time in four years, to change the way in which you report performance.
6. To keep up, you will have to work even more overtime than you already do, which you don't get paid for.

What would your response be? I know what mine would be.
Mine would depend upon the basis from which these changes were being made.

i.e. if I was previously making a billion dollars for one hour of work per week with lock tight job security and a gold plated pension I'd be just fine with it. If I was previously making $40K for 80 hours of work per week with no job security or pension I'd be upset.
