Wait, so are we talking about lump-sum increases or lump-sum deposits? I'm getting my financial terms mixed up here. Someone call an accountant!

Hmm, I'm not too keen on making up for benefits that should be provided. Option D sounds a bit like a bandaid solution to me.

Rewards for short-term incentives? Count me in! Option C gets my vote. Who doesn't love a little bonus now and then?

Option A makes the most sense to me. Controlling those pesky fixed costs is key, especially with the way inflation is these days.

A lump-sum increase? I'd rather get a raise that sticks around, not just a one-time boost. Option B seems like the way to go.
