Ask Mr. Trump: Questions from Readers of the
Trump University Blog
Q: Why are companies today so quick to lay off thousands of
people, force salary cuts, lowball wages, and downscale benefits?
DJT: Most businesses watch the bottom line, and sometimes
actions that seem drastic or unfair are necessary to remain in busi-
ness. In the business world, no business means no jobs, but some
business means some jobs. Always watch out for your best inter-
ests. If you think you’re with an unfair or unscrupulous organiza-
tion, look elsewhere. Try putting yourself in your employer’s
shoes; maybe he or she is trying to save the business and jobs.
Then again, maybe he or she is not. Be fair in your assessment by
trying to see it from both sides.
