It has been suggested by some people that employees should be remunerated on the extent of their input and output. In my opinion, I totally agree that people should be paid on how much they produce and sell because that will increase their level of diligence and productivity.
To start with, most of the 21st century youths wants free money and wants to be rich without working for it. But, if there is a realisation that the money will be earned based on the amount of goods and services being produced, people will be more diligent and work hard. In addition, there will also be an increase in the productivity of the employer. This is because more production will bring more sales and more sales will bring more profit to the company.
Furthermore, there will be a sense of fulfillment and satisfaction on the part of the workers because they are working for their pay. Moreso, it will teach the workers to be prudent in their spending because the money was earned under their sweat. In fact, more people will be encouraged to save for the rainy days. For example, there was a research done by the youth empowerment scheme which relates to being paid as you work and about 75% of the workers were in support of getting paid based on the work done.
In conclusion, the best way to motivate people and encourage diligence is to pay them based on how much they produce and sell.

The diagram illustrates the process of making milk and dairy products. Overall, there are 8 stages in the process, starting with cows grazing in the fields and culminating with ready goods being delivered to supermakets and shops. In the first 4 stages, cows graze on the grass, after which they are taken to a milking machine to be milked twice a day. Following this, the milk is left in refrigeration storage. In the next step, the milk is delivered to Dairy in milk tankers on a daily basis. In the last 4 stages, once the milk is delivered to Dairy, it is subsequently put through a pasteurisation process. It is then turned into various dairy products such as cheese, cream, and butter. Finally, as soon as milk and dairy products are packaged, they are sent out to supermarkets and shops where they are displayed to be purchased by customers.

Dear Ms. McKeen,
My name is Leo Smith and I am a first-year student in your Marketing class at Capilano College. I am writing to you because I have a problem with the project you set about social media. The due date was last week but I'm afraid I haven't finished it yet. As you know, I have been absent from class for almost ten days with COVID-19 symptoms and I have not been attending lectures. I only managed to get the reading list from a friend and go to the library to do research yesterday. You will see from your records that I have never missed a deadline for an assignment so far during my course.
However, I am requesting an extension of one week in this case because I am so behind with my work. I hope you will take my illness into consideration and grant me an extension.
Yours sincerely,
Leo Smith
