Don’t forget the company meetings where leadership says things like “this is the best quarter we have ever had”, along with “we need to work harder to stay competitive”. Sigh.
“Despite making record profits, we still didn’t hit EBITDA this year, therefore no bonuses or raises. Merry Christmas!”
That’s not true. The senior management team will be getting raises in line with inflation and also huge bonuses for those record profits. Not to mention their share value increasing.
Oh yeah check that box too, for me
In Belgium we have automatic wage indexation based on inflation of certain product. Some right wing parties want to get rid of it, but luckily it’s still here.

You have no idea how lucky you are. Then again, you have to live in same country as Charleroi, so it kinda balances it out.
Sounds like right wing is just as evil and stupid in the east as it is in the west…! :-)
And remember, 10 years from now, you’ll be nostalgic for this shitty time.
If a climate change superstorm, AI, riots, famine, etc haven’t gotten around to killing you yet at least. Lucky dead bastards.
Hopefully I can replace myself with an AI and then she can deal with this shit.
I remind myself of this every time I start feeling nostalgic.
Cool old C10 truck? Wait a minute those things were $200 any day of the week when I was 18 (because they were and still are trash)
When theres literally people in the UK screaming about NHS workers getting a 5% pay rise when NHS workers earn significantly less than they would doing the same work in the private sector and considering that people actually get free healthcare from the people wjo got this pitiful raise is absolutely soul destroying. Especially when you take this meme into account.
You guys are getting raises?
Yes, but i went above and beyond
I knew someone had to have said it… Lol… I don’t even need to scroll further to see if there was anyone else.
It would be funny if it didn’t hurt so much. Rent is too high, grocery bill has me intermittent fasting, and I walk/bike instead of driving now. Shit is rough out here.
9.1? Jajajajajajajajaja (laughs in argentinian 120% yearly inflation rate)
3% raise, huh? How about no raise
'Muricans flexing with 3% inflation
More like greed. Inflation because they have record profits, pay their employees less *(relative to inflation )and charge more for their products
I believe I got 3.2% this year and 2.8% next year, or in other words, I got completely shafted. Doesn’t even cover food cost going up.
Actually got a 3% raise
Actual inflation was 10.5% at the timeYou fuckers are getting raises??! Goddammit, you’re part of the problem!
You guys need to unionize and fight for raises that exceed the inflation rate. Here in Brazil, we have this in almost every type of labor.
Five years ago, the right-wing began dismantling the unions’ monetization system in an attempt to break them, and they also raised the retirement age. However, the unions are still doing their job, and every year we receive a raise above inflation.
The current left-wing government has already said that they are working to recover a monetization system for unions. They are studying a way to implement this in a manner that will make it difficult for a future government to repeal.
Jump jobs if you haven’t recently done so. Sometimes you can get almost double the pay.
