Will it work? eh….maybe not, but if you hit the right pressure points in the HR apparatus, (have a woman write it as if she’s narcing on the boys planning their exit) then you just might get a 3% bump?

I had something similar once, because they overheard us talking about jumping ship to a new place opening up nearby, we mysteriously had the partners approve a blanket ~8% COL increase of almost a dollar an hour. Nothing amazing, sure, but there wasn’t insane inflation in the late 00’s

i can't really complain because i got a ~18% raise last year and still live like a poornigger. like the job too. but the recession is already showing in our sales numbers and i'm eying the door, if the right posting comes along. no room to be anything but entirely mercenary these days
