Austerity

MEMORANDUM: TO ALL PERFORMERS. Due to the recent increase in fiscal downgrowth, the composer must unfortunately expand cost-saving efforts to include an expansion of our downsizing endeavor. Staff members in positions that are not being phased out may experience alternative conditions of performance, including but not limited to: an increase in notational responsibility; expanded interactions with mechanical or automated co-performers; heavier reliance on benchmarking, and a decrease in overall compensation. It is the composer's aim that this proactive approach to talent management will stimulate our entrepreneurial spirit, thereby resolving our fiscal difficulties without any major adverse effects.
