Antiwork

Quit my job because I wasn’t satisfied with the pay, then they had to pay someone $20k more to fill my position.

Just found out that they had nobody apply for my position and that they ended up moving another manager to my role and giving them $20k more that what I was being paid to do my old job.

It just boggles my mind.
