My partner has a WFH job. The pay is decent but not incredible. I make significantly more. My partner requested a raise based on their multiple outstanding performance reports.
Raise was denied. However, the company told them that they would now be doubling the case load. Effectively rewarding my partner's hard work with more work.
Partner is currently off on stress leave. The amount of work and conflicting direction/ lack of direction they are experiencing has begun to affect them physiologically.
Anyway, sorry for being so vague.
We figure we can still make ends meet if my spouse takes a lower paying job. Their well-being is worth more than the salary they were giving her.
First interview for a new job is this afternoon. Send your best!
