Transparency here I live on my own in an expensive city. Make $14 an hr.
Been working for this company almost 3 years. For the last 7 months I’ve been told I was going to get a raise. I’ve become a manager at this point and have a new set of responsibilities since the first convo of a raise. Well three days ago by top boss gives me call says cool your getting the raise and it’s impressive. I’m honestly at this point jsut praying I get that one more dollar I’ve been waiting on. Today I got my check. No raise. But my antidepressants went up and my food has been going up so now I’m out of groceries soon my meds and feel like I’ve been running in circles for yet another company that would toss me in the trash without a moments thought.
I don’t know where I’m going next either because truthfully I can’t imagine working another job that’ll treat me poorly. I’m already so depressed this information has ruined my whole day I can’t stop sobbing. I just really wanted to buy groceries on this check and I won’t be able to months coming I’m sure.
