SAN FRANCISCO — Facing skyrocketing costs, local small businesses have adopted an innovative compensation model: employees are now paid exclusively in “good vibes” and “hope for a better tomorrow.”
Workers report mixed results. Some feel inspired, while others are “questioning reality, finances, and career choices simultaneously.”
A shop owner explained:
“Money is basically imaginary anyway. Vibes are tangible. I can see them. Sometimes they sparkle.”
Economists call it a “bold experiment in capitalism and delusion” and advise the public to stock up on ramen noodles.
