Ehh. I have seen some wacky commission structures that were not profitable. The reality is sales don’t occur in a vacuum and you cannot give so much commission that you can not cover your overhead.

Yes, hourly increments are reasonable. But a full day minimum is ridiculous. And so is docking PTO for an exempt employee who could otherwise make up the time.

According to the Handbook, the request is downgraded to a grievance, and the whistle blower is directed to resolve the personality clash they created.

If the whistle blower persists in requesting protection from the management activities described in this post, they are directed to undergo a psychiatric evaluation by a psychiatrist chosen and paid for by the organization.

BTW, this is probably the only way whistle blowers CAN get their evidence examined. Like every doctor, psychiatrists are obliged to assess the signs and symptoms of illness before making a diagnosis. If a doctor ignores evidence that the patient’s statements are not delusional, this is medical malpractice. Few doctors are prepared to put their license on the line by deliberately making a false diagnosis.

If the whistle blower brings documents supporting his allegations to the assessment, the psychiatrist must conclude that the whistle-blower statements are not delusions. This will probably be the only recorded acknowledgement of the evidence of wrongdoing and reprisals; something the employer had hitherto avoided doing.
