I wwent into the mailroom on my way out to lunch today, since I rarely go in there and I thought I'd check and seeif I have any mail (I rarely do). There was one envelope in there with a peice of paper inside titled "NOTIFICATION OF PERSONNEL ACTION".

Apparently I've gotten a raise from $36,449/year to $37,625/year, It's a whole 3.2%, but considering I didn't even know I got it, not bad.

Apaprently they do something similar every year I just never remember it.

3.2%'s more of a raise than my employer has allowed a manager to give out in the last four years. (though a director got a $60k bonus for screwing employees out of weekends)

bump just so people can see that the one thing that's really expensive in california is housing. It's not like it costs $29.99 for a big mac.

<-- makes about the same as notfred and lives in the same area.

I'm looking at getting into a town house, it won't be good and it'll be pushing it. But prices have been slowly falling.

It's nice to always get a little something-something that you didn't expect.

I can't wait for the housing bubble to burst wide open.

Graduating in 1 year and I'm confident ti will happen right about then.

If you devote 100% of your take home pay, that's about right. (literally)

I also just got my annual raise (6%) which I thought was OK, until I found out it is twice what anybody else in the company got:eek:. So I guess it was better than OK:)
