Whoever came up with the system “if you don’t allocate all of your yearly budget, your budget will be smaller next year” is responsible for so much human misery and wasted money

I once pressed the "return" key on September 30th and thereby spent many millions of dollars.

@sidereal My favourite rule was "We're increasing our fees by 3% next year."
Me: "Why? We have a surplus."
President: "Because we have to make increases in line with inflation."
Me: "Even though we don't need them?"
Pres: "Yes, so that we can go a year without increasing them."
Me: "We can not increase them this year."
Pres: "That's not what I'm talking about."
That was in the mid 2010's.
Then COVID happened. And they didn't increase fees for almost three years, and it was a relatively minor hit, and they survived the pandemic, as did most of their clients.
@JustinDerrick @sidereal and then they put up their fees by 30% because reasons?
