During a team meeting in Vancouver, a manager just bluntly stated that our HK IT staff didn't deserve their pay. It was jarring to hear that kind of dismissal. They said some people are just not professional enoguh for the salaries they get. i was sitting there thinking about the hours we put in and the constant stress we deal with. I mean, it's not just about skills, it's about the workload too. The atmosphere felt tense right after that comment. I could see some colleagues shifting uncomfortably in their seats. I left the meeting feeling frustrated, knowing we all work hard and deserve better. It's like they forget that we're all trying to make this place work, no matter where we're based.
