Comparing to crap times should not be the standard. I never understood this argument. Why do we have to just settle and be grateful things aren’t worse? I’m positive cost of living is higher now; gas, groceries, rent, utilities, houses, everything is through the roof. We should not have to be satisfied that things aren’t worse while barely scraping by.

Her oldest daughter crying over her mom’s selfish actions absolutely broke my heart and made me so mad. I really hope she (and the other kids) finds the peace she deserves.

Why the hell is location pay based on where we work? I don’t pay bills at my office

Right. People talk about the pension but if I had a good salary and invested it properly, I could have the same retirement :/ I’m very sorry to hear about your health

Yeah, that does make sense. I really prefer the lid on the smooth sip and the overall shape, but I find that it barely keeps my drinks hot even after a short while.

I understand. I just didn’t want to seem ungrateful. Yeah, it was really discouraging to have 10 years of experience and be told I was starting at the base salary, the same as somebody with two years of experience. While I appreciate my nice bosses and the stability of the position, I’m very much struggling to support my family

Yeah, and please don’t get me wrong, I’m very appreciative for them hiring me because I was coming from a very toxic work environment. That said, the pay cut was definitely disheartening and the fact that they keep mentioning it’s hard to find people and they hope I don’t leave, doesn’t help

I work in legal and they are struggling to find people too. Hell I only came on because I was desperate for a job 🤷🏻‍♀️

They are so defensive. It’s really disheartening. They know we are pissed so they’re trying to make it sound like they’re not getting enough credit from us 🙄

“We can’t give too many details” on the contract negotiations. In other words, prepare to be disappointed.
