How to reward skilled coders with something other than people management
Err... Money???Most people will (rightfully) settle for money. Because people need love, and to demonstrate love you need to show that you care, that you're willing to give something up in a hard situation. And the only thing a company cares for is money. So, I want said company to give me money. More money than the 'manager'. Because I can do their job just as badly as they are doing it, but they can't do mine at all.I don't want your stupid titles and shit - those are cheap. Cash is what will hurt you. Pay up if you care!And when people realise they have to pay you or lose you, then you get respect. Priceless!!!
