minus-squareaidan@lemmy.worldMlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 months ago You’re accusing a highly respected and frequently audited charity of embezzlement? No? I never said anything about embezzlement. Or you think from their public documents that they pay their employees too much? I also never said that. Here’s an example: If you work for a public park, you’re probably going to support more money for the park for a lot of reasons, but here are just a few: the park may be able to afford to pay you more. the park may be able to afford hiring more people making your job easier. you likely care about the park to some extent and want other people to enjoy it. you want where you work and spend your time to be liked. you are less likely to be at risk of losing your job. None of those things are embezzlement or suggest you’re overpaid.
