Pay People Bananas Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

It has been said
in a very famous;
colloquial salary;
related quotation...

‘If you pay people peanuts
you get monkeys.”

the implications being

you get what you pay for!

low salaries attract less
educated qualified or
less competent people!

to get good staff you need
to pay an attractive wage!

the monkeys working for
low salaries are not capable
of understanding or doing
their jobs in a competent manner!

Like all sweeping statements
these generalizations are not
cannot always be accurate or true.

One critical cynical employer stated

‘If you pay people bananas
you get apes.’

Interesting! No Comment!
