I just completed a monthly ‘check in’ with my manager. I mentioned that despite two raises over two years and a promotion last year, my wages were flat. I mentioned that I went on the Bureau of Labor Statistics website and saw that my wage today is essentially the same as it was when I started in early 2021. Again, despite a promotion. She said ‘you mean, after inflation?’ while making a scrunched, Zoolander face. I answered yes. She said ‘Mmmm.’ Mmmm.
