Dear Unfair Share: Take A Deep Breath, And Create A Comeback Plan. Be Ready To Show Your Employer All You Have Done -- In Writing -- To Bring Their Business To Where It Stands Today. If You Are Able To Point Out Numbers, Do So. Tell Them You Think It's Unfair For Them To Want To Cut Your Pay As You Are Helping Them Expand In Real Time. If They Truly Do Not Have The Funds, Ask Them To Give You Equity In Their Business -- Make You A Partner -- And You Will Take The Pay Cut. Don't Walk Away Without Negotiating. Stand Up For Yourself As You Remind Them Of How Much You Have Invested In The Business.
