prices are falling not even by day but by hour - I am producing ~3k of spare raw materials daily - luckily I can keep stockpiling them for another couple of weeks - hopefully something will be done with this overproduction 😃

Average daily bonus for "Harmonic Co-op" workers (the set of companies I am managing) is still about ~$209 (paid weekly via donations) plus daily minimum wage of USD 6.50. This is a profit-share co-op. Doing things this way seems to smooth out the sharp fluctuations in average prices and wages. Still some ups and downs with the market, but with a relatively small workforce (5 employees + manager), the extremes don't seem to get so extreme.

Curious if other small-scale profit-share type mangers have had the same experience?
