To make a long story short this past Friday my coworker (we'll call Bob) told me that our coworker (Susan) is making $1 more than us late last week. Susan was hired no more than four weeks ago and is way younger than me.
Today, I talked to Susan at work and asked her directly how much she makes and told me she makes a little over $16/hour.
I always help my bosses out by coming in when there are problems with the schedule. I asked my supervisor at the end of August for a raise, which I did not get. No problem, whatever. But to hear that someone that was just hired is making more money than me and is many years younger than me is a slap in the face.
Should I ask for raise and if it needs to come down to me saying “I know a coworker who is younger than me is making more money” or should I just find a new job.
Loyalty has been destroyed and now I won't be helping them or bending over backwards for them when they are in a pinch. Any suggestions on what to do would be appreciated. Thanks guys!
