Well first off, no one has wages denominated in BTC, it's far too unstable to do that yet. People are being paid their USD equivalent in BTC, but their salaries in still denominated in USD.
> Why would you get paid less?
Because you are not an island, when an economy suffers from deflation the prices of goods and services have to be dropped and salaries get dropped as well because that's how business works. Your employer isn't going to sell his stuff for less but keep paying you more.
> Deflation means the wage you get paid is worth more. Inflation means the wage you get paid is worth less.
Yes, I know what the words mean. But the effects of inflation and deflation are far more complicated than just the meaning of the words.
