I'm talking about my year end salary increase. It's only 2.3%.

Well, at least I'm working.

I told you, quit trying to bargain down my ho's, or you'll be eating your meals through straws for a month. Minimum fee for one of 'em to touch you is two hundred, and so help me, I will pimpslap you if you offer a penny lower.

happened to me last year ... but like you say at least we're working. in my case i think i've topped out on the company scale. if they kept giving my 5% i'd be making more than my boss - a big no-no.

That happens more often then you think, esp in technical areas where managers can be a dime a dozen in comparison to their employees.

I'm hoping to get 15%.

I guess we'll see what actually happens, though.

Been there, I was hopeful for something like 5-8%. I got 2.5% raise, but a 8% hike in insurance as well, that and the ever increasing cost of living, so I didn't get a raise at all.

I agree, at least I'm working and can pay all my bills.

 

[OrByte]

just got an 8% rise...not bad.

keep your chin up, it will happen!

According to "The Economist," inflation in the US is currently running at 3.2%. You got a pay cut. Of course, the year before (from this date, relevant if your pay raise is at the same time every year) it was only running at 2.0%. What was your increase last year? Figure out if you got the shaft in the long run.

Note that the average wage rate in the US was 2.6% this year and 2.2% last year. Don't know how relevant that is.

/hugs "The Economist." Ahh, computers aren't the only brand of nerdiness.

Ouch, I did worse than I thought. I don't remember what I got last year -- but I remember it was also very small.
