1. I need a raise. The BS to pay ratio is no longer favorable.

2. Unless they ask magically start doing their jobs better, no. There is no worktable boundary. I've already had a few run ins with the owners of the company. I'm not in thin ice. (If I walk, they are so effing screwed its not even funny since I'll take a few guys with me, without it being intentional. I am VERY good at what I do.) But, that are only going to tolerate me being confrontational for so long. I hate being confrontational, too, but, if I'm pushed to that point... It's ugly and I'm going to walk away standing.

3. I could try to stop caring. But that's really, really hurtful to me and it's not worth walking down that dark a path again.

So I whinge about it on the internet. 🤷‍♂️😏🙄🫣

What if instead of not caring, you looked at it as defending your peace? As long as what they are doing doesnt directly impact you or your work. Idk just spitballin. I hate to think you wasting precious energy on these nincompoops 😩🫂 like here is my bubble of concern and you asshats arent worthy

I just care about my work. I love what I do. I'm easily the most versatile fabricator I know, even though I know done really excellent dudes that are better at a particular thing or another. (I'm not implying I know it all. I am humble enough to learn every day. But I'm really friggin good at what I do.)

I really just want to work at a place that let's be do what I want and gives me what I need to accomplish whatever boneheaded thing a customer wants. I haven't gotten to that point anywhere yet so I might be chasing a pipe dream. 🤷‍♂️
