The worst is when you get a manager who’s either too clueless to realize you’re seeing a pay cut from an “increase” so small, or one who knows but is pretending otherwise.

That awkward pause in the comp update meeting when they tell you about the “increase” and seem to expect some positive reaction. LOL.

"You work hard, screw over everybody that you love, hurt, rob, kill indiscriminately and maybe... just maybe, if you're lucky, you become a three bit gangster. It's bullshit. Go to college. Then you can rip people off and get paid for it. It's called capitalism"

Could be worse, mine has promised me salary increase thrice this year. Every time coming up with bullshit issues why it couldn't happen.

I am still working on minimum wage (as a DevOps).
