I’ve been at my company almost a decade. I make “ok” money, but found out kids starting out are making a dollar or more than me an hour. I woke up in the most Office Space mindset I’ve ever had to my alarm, turned it off and went back to bed.
Strolled in two hours late and claimed I had a “medical emergency”. Even had PTO cover it. We’re already short staffed and plenty of people are hiring in my field so I’m just riding this high til they decide they want to compensate me for my experience or let me go.
I highly recommend it.
EDIT: I’m also letting every new employee i talk to know about the lack of pay raises in their future. Just in case.
