Just been given a pay rise
Boss phoned me at home today, told me I got a pay rise.
Even he said it is never enough. But when the tax man takes his slice, makes me want to cry. Gas, electricity, petrol, rates etc all go up by greater than inflation. Why do I never get an inflation busting pay rise.

Re: Just been given a pay rise
At least you got one mate. Big up to you. No payrise for me despite getting rated over my stated goals (every year since I was transferred in) as I am paid 'above market rate for my job group' - it's all bollox.

Re: Just been given a pay rise
There are exceptions, but the best way to get significant rise in salary for most people is to take/get a new job ..
But that does require you do something about it!  Get ya CVs on monster HTH
