So I have been thinking. OMG, thinking! I can’t believe it! I have to somehow sweet talk the boss into giving me a raise. I know that I have barely been back two weeks, but I believe that this reflects on my years of past service as well. I am still entitled to everything that I would have been had I not been on maternity leave for a year, right? (I don’t want to be one of those people that get fired for writing shit online about work, LOL)
I know that there are new people hired that are making more then me. Granted, they have years experience that I have not. Not because I haven’t tried or anything, it’s simply age. Everyone else is 30+ at my company and there’s little ol’ me pushing 26. LOL
But I have 5 years with this company and have alot of experience for that short time (feels like a life time) under my belt. My starting wage was nothing compared to what new hires are starting out at which leaves me falling at the bottom end of the spectrum where wages are concerned.
I may just broach the topic tomorrow in a meeting and gauge his reaction (hopefully it’s not telling me to pack my shit and get the fuck out), then go from there. I just don’t know.. I just know that I hate feeling like I am not contributing to my household because every penny is dedicated to bills and debt. I hate that I have no money for me, yes, I pay myself first.. but dammit I want to be able to TREAT myself too!
Gimme a freakin’ RAISE!
