My company has been generous enough to give us raises every year! /s

The company that I work for received high praise for giving their employees raises during the pandemic and not firing anyone. We have a tool in our timecard app where you can compare your current and past wages. I looked at it today. At this time in 2019, I was making $160 less per paycheck (gross pay) than I am making now, but I was bringing home $110 MORE per paycheck.
