Labour Microeconomics : vacuous comment

 Salary negotiation strategy. 

• 1. I notice that employEEs typically anchor their strategy on the heuristic that pay only goes up. ( Personally, I rarely assumed this approach. )
• 2. In service of (1), the most common strategic complement is for employEEs to acquire specialisation. ( Hence, I rarely bother to specialise. )

Resultingly, the economy loses a lot of talent because people over-specialise and don't translate a large chunk of their skills into P&L value. Then again, I suppose this excess supply is mopped up by companies whose organisational structures favour generalist agents.
