I’m an electrician working in a powerplant. I get paid more than teachers, nurses, junior doctors and many other professions which are arguably more valuable.
Ok, I’m only earning a few thousand more than them, not multiples of their salaries, but turning down my bonus only makes the shareholders richer, it’s not money that would find it’s way to the people that deserve it.
Does he think he can’t turn down a bonus?
“Oh no please don’t force millions of pounds into my bank account! oh noo”
He already has done that a few times.
The point is why would you?
