Only a .50 cent raise after getting the best marks possible on my reviews.

I'm frankly insulted by this. I'm a CNA, for a year at this point. A year that started out with me working 184 days straight, with atleast 10 hour shifts each day, with no overtime(I did this for the family, as they wouldn't be able to afford the overtime premium, and were unable to find another caregiver to take care of their loved one, as he was a very difficult patient).

I've only been late twice in the last year. Once was 10 mins late, due to a flat tire, and the other was less than that. According to the review, they agree that I'm pretty much their perfect employee. I go above an beyond for my clients, and I know for a fact that it has resulted in my company receiving atleast 2 clients from recommendations from families of my clients. So .50 cent pay increase is downright insulting. Luckily I'm in school to go into a new field. But was hoping to stay with this company until I did so, but unless they rectify this, I plan on leaving as soon as I can.
