Question: Would the best solution to morale problems be alleviated by firing all of the unhappy people? 

Answer: Riiiiiiiiiiiight. \n\nNever work on the problem; just get rid of those that notice it. The ole "sweep the problem under the rug" trick. Even though I love my job, I hate how the place is run. Disgruntled employee? Well YEAH! I am. And time and time again I see morale issues being handled by reprimanding us and telling us to "act professionally." Threats being made to people that are unhappy with how something is run is ludicrious. It's such a "control" thing. People in authority hate to say, "I'm wrong." So they transfer blame to the common man and try to make the weak feel weaker. It blows my mind that not all people are willing to step back from a situation and seriously look at solutions to the greater whole. \n\nSure, fire all of the unhappy people. You will then probably have an empty workplace. But hey.....there won't be any complaints about how you run things now. *cough* Until you hire your next bunch of heathens. ;)
