Job creep, happening again

I left my job in the pharmaceutical industry. I was working as an inventory specialist, then my boss said, “ hey a position opened up as a shipping and receiving associate, you should take it” awesome, and it was a 1.50 pay increase. Little did i know, they werent filling the inventory specialist position and just combining the roles of both jobs into one…. Needless to say i quit that job pretty quickly. Got hired by a food manufacturer in supply chain. Supply chain account management. Good pay, manageable work load. Then they fired someone in the same position that managed other accounts, and gave me the accounts they were managing as well. No pay increase… been doing my accounts and the new accounts for about 8 months. Im totally swamped. Well the business is expanding and picking up 6 more accounts. They expect me to manage 3 more accounts…

They expect me to manage 3 more accounts with no pay increase nor they are hiring someone else. I told my boss, “this is exactly why i left my last job and i will be doing the same here if we dont get this fixed. I should be compansated fairly for an increase in my workload” they were displeased. More to come on the issue, just ranting. Why is it that companies reward those who are hard working with more work load
