you got a pay decrease then.

If you got all high marks and raise to keep up with cost of living you should immediately contact the HR department and demand a raise.

That's not going to work in my company. My only choice is to start looking for another job.

Sounds like you know what to do.

Most likely. It could be a bad sign, as the future of your continued employment with the company might be under consideration.

 

That's your ticket to unlimited slacking.
If you havn't taken many personal days, you should start now.
