I expect hard work.
I show appreciation by paying you for it.
But…
If these words will make you feel any better…
Thank you.
I’ve recently heard musings about certain employees being tempted to leave during this transition process, so I want to remind you of the initial contract you signed with me.
Please see Clause 13B.
No employee is allowed to resign before this takeover is finalized.
No employee.
I may terminate you, butyou are not permitted to leave me.
Executives working on a special project will be given a new tier of perks this week, and I will continue making salary adjustments as re-interview sessions allow.
THANK YOU for your attention to this issue.
(I will be sure to add this to every email moving forward.)
Your appreciative CEO,
Harrison Cross
CEO, Sweet Seasons Coffee
Founder & Owner, Cross Industries

Now he needs to get you an office and he might make it off my shit list.

Keyword: might.
Do his gestures make you hate him a little less?
HELL NO.
