A Raise!

[fabrisse]

Yes, they offered me more responsibility in addition to the ones I have now.

But it comes with a raise.

Of $.50 per hour.

That sounds like a starting point for negotiation.

You know how I feel about this, but I feel the need to say it again: keep your cool, but keep looking for a new job. These people are hosing you big time.

There's supposed to be more money in July, maybe as much as $15.00 per hour total. There's been a vague promise of review then.

In addition, I've flat out stated that I want the trip I've been promised for over a year and an extra weekend in Boston when they send me for training. They've agreed, but I've had them agree before only to snatch things away.

Huge hugs.

Love the icon.

Yes, I'm looking for other jobs. And I haven't sharpened my cane yet, so I'm being a good girl. *G*

Hugs to you too.

I will send you good vibes for your job search. Sometimes it's all you can do.

Great icon.

All good vibes are happily accepted and applied toward job karma. *G*

Good luck! Have you asked these questions in email and gotten an email response? cause it's almost like getting it in writing.

I agree about getting thing in email, but mostly just want to wish you the better job luck you deserve. I've been bizarrely lucky w/ my own job-related stuff, maybe I can pass some of that on to you.

When I first read this I wasn't paying proper attention, so I thought you said $50 an hour. I was starting to get all thrilled for you, imagining how you were finally being treated as the top-notch computer pro you are, and how you'd finally be able to move out and get your life on track.

Then I noticed your mood, and re-read the post, and . . .

What a bubble-burster!
