Part 2 – I know something you don’t

Part 2 of what happened in my last post: https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/comments/saqyso/i_know_something_you_dont_i_know_something_youll/ So I left you guys for a bit, wondering if I should talk to my manager about what's bothering me.

So I left you guys for a bit, wondering if I should talk to my manager about what's bothering me.

I was able to schedule a meeting with them. I told them I:
1. Felt disrespected by the way they keep rescheduling my meetings (about things that are important to me).
2. Knew I was underpaid in comparison with my coworkers.
3. Knew they had given my coworker a raise at a time they told me they didn't do raises (because company policy).

They were taken aback. They lied they didn't know the salaries of my coworkers (i call bullshit) and that the raise of a coworker was a 'special circumstance' one. They tried to pry where I got that information from.
They tried to please me by saying how much they like my work and work ethic. They told me they would look if they could reschedule the meeting to an earlier time (to talk about my salary).
I told them I am happy to hear they think so and hope we will be talking soon about my pay. I left their office feeling really confident.

Little do they know I have been talking with other companies in the meantime, all in their worktime. They unknowingly paid me while I was doing Zoom interviews with other companies.

I have 4 offers from them rn. I will be making about 10 – 16k a year more than I do with my current company now. I am still hashing out the details and secondary benefits with those companies.

I can't wait to see their faces when I hand over my resignation letter.
