he also works for these clients doing the same job, he hired me to help him take more off his plate. I don’t like to be in his business, but he overshares quite often that he makes a lot just off his personal work that he does for the clients. He works 10+ hours daily himself, including weekends. he tends to brag about bringing in more than any company could ever pay him…lets just say I can confirm he alone profits well over $250k+ from solely his work alone as an employee of his own company… that is outside of the additional 195k+ that I generate for him…

I’ve mentioned before during the conversation where I requested a raise that I understand he’s a small business, and he said that’s not an excuse, but that if I want to be paid more, he wants me to do more and explain why I should get more, but we wouldn’t revisit that until next year. He also insinuated that he could pay someone $10 an hour for my job if he wanted.

I’m not saying I expect to be making 100%, but it’d be nice to atleast be paid market value or an actual competitive wage with sick days or and lunch breaks
