Now take that extra 15.00 and open a mutual fund account and reinvest it that way and watch it grow.

If you don't have the smarts to put money away for a rainy day, that's on you.
The issue isn't a bonus to just show up to work, the issue is what you have to pay to get workers to work in a high stress situation when there are lower stress jobs available.

I'll take call centers as an example. Some companies measure how long calls last and call center employees are graded on keeping calls under a specified duration so they can handle a certain call volume with a certain staffing level. Other companies are more focused on customer satisfaction. The first is a high stress situation. The second isn't.
