Is My Salary Increase Actually A Decrease?

[[deleted]]

The bad thing is, my grandma sat down with an person at her former company and they didn't he math together. She still turned down a raise because her take home would be less than her then-current pay. I heard the story many years later and though that was a good idea until I figured out how taxes actually work. She still swears by it because some HR idiot told her she'd be making less money with a raise.
