I said I work so I can afford to do stuff during my free time, I do not work to provide anything for my boss/company, I don't give a shit about my workplace, its just a source of money and I will do what is asked of me and nothing more.

But then I know that every year when we discuss our wages they have a set amount to give out to all of us and a minimum that everyone is getting and the remaining is given out depending on you contributed the most but the thing is the difference between the worst and best employee is 1% extra increase but most people are in the middle so if you work your ass of you are only getting 0.5% more than the rest.

I'm not gonna stress and wear out my body and mind for such a small amount. But for some reason my parents can't understand this.
