*sigh* well the company I work for has frozen payraises |
|
again this year maybe we will get a cost of living for the first time in 2 years ... that is what they call a payraise ... .... and raised health care premiums by 4-8 percent .... and dropped several of the options in health care .... I did NOT ask for this ...
:( :grr:

4. Mine hasn't announced it yet, but it's coming. |

No cost of living increases for the past 2 years. Certainly no merit raises. Looks like we're headed for year three.

5. This is the new normal. |
|
Instead of a pay raise, employers now can just not fire you/lay you off, and may even ask for (and get) wage concessions..:(

Welcome to the club, but at least you didn't lose your job or take a big step back in pay like so many of us have had to do.
