no happy
Letter for work has just come through the door.
Dear Tim, PAY REVIEW 2006 I am pleased blah blah blah Thank you for you continued support blah blah blah So my pay has gone up by 3%. but over the past 4 years it has only increased by 8% and I now earn less than I did 5 years ago when I used to get bonus's. and we had a pay freeze for 15 months as money was tight etc. Problem is I have worked for the same company for 22 years and they know I won't walk out and find a new job as I would be turning my back on a potential redundancy package and need to look after my pension etc. So do I continue to skive and surf t'internet or buckle down and earn a decent pay rise next year, which will never materialise as I won't re-locate to the back of beyond known as rugby B'stards |
Become a medical miracle and go on Maternity! :lol:

I'm in a similar situation.
Two 2.5% pay rises in 5 years. (total of 3 pay rises in seven years) Tried buckling down and working my **** off, no difference. So I'm going with the skiving and surfing route, **** 'em :evil: |
Isn't that inflation rate that everyone should get anyway ?
btw timwilky you don't deserve more after what you posted in my thread a couple of weeks ago. :lol: |

:shock:
guess I've been lucky then. I always had the inflation rate pay increase every year. |
Jabba is quite correct.
Well my employers no longer have an automatic cost of living award. You get what they can get away with. Only way to get a decent salary is to resign. You only get away with it once and occasionally they will call you bluff. |
Tim Wilky in happy with his lot shocker!

Surely after 22 years your pension would be safe and you could move it with you or freeze it. I'd change jobs - sod the redundancy - quality of life is more important. My boss is away for the summer period and I've just been poncing around the office and while-ing away the hours - all a bit boring. I'd move on if I were you and enjoy being appreciated and having a satisfying job again.
Or am I being idealistic? |
