Message: <blockquote data-quote="Kenny Coyote" data-source="post: 165731" data-attributes="member: 102">This is something I meant to address earlier but didn't get around to:I don't justify salaries increasing while ratings are dropping but I can tell you that it's not uncommon. This is how it happens:A lot of multi-year  contracts are loaded on the back end. Someone gets a contract while business is good and it looks like this: It's a 3 year contract and you get $500,000 the first year, $600,000 the second year, and $700,000 the third year. So even if business drops off over that time period the employer is already contractually obligated to the guaranteed salary.</blockquote>
