Who owns your shop? Perhaps a letter to majority ownership, even anonymously if necessary. They may circular file it but if it's read by anyone near the top it may leave an impression.
I want to tell you. We are a multi-state multi-billion company owned by an individual. He is a fabulous human being. He hired a plant manager for a facility in another state and the numbers in that facility looked great. One day he got a personal letter from a whole group of employees at that facility that had worked there for quite some time. They reminded our owner how great it is to work for him and their desire to stay a lifetime, however, after only 8 months under the new plant manager they were all thinking of leaving and they detailed the reasons why. To their utter surprise, within 4 months the plant manager was replaced.
Now this is an ideal situation but those employees were willing to take the risk of losing their jobs because they already knew the heart behind the owner. The letter was diplomatic, logical, unemotional, and specific.
Who knows it MIGHT work for you but then again you could get the ax depending on how things work at your company.
