    You are paid to benefit the company though. It’s literally your job.

      Then they should pay me based on that—giving me partial ownership, for example, would incentivize me to do better for the company. As it stands, I get paid the same no matter how the company is doing. I only have an incentive not to get fired… which is easier if I’m indispensable.

        If you don’t think your salary is enough you should consider switching employer.

        If you never document your shit I’m surprised you don’t get fired.

          Oh wow just switch employers, is that all

          Beyond that, you missed my point. Even if I were being paid more, I still wouldn’t have any incentive to make myself dispensable. Unless I’m vested in the company profits, then the profits don’t matter to me.
