You earned a gold star. Now about your yearly raise... Yeah we only made 200% profits this year so we are going to need to put that on hold.

My company did that this year. Record profits, company is expanding, but no raise this year. Last year they gave hourly employees $2 an hour increase. No raises to anyone this year except corporate I suspect. I'm management and didn't see a dime. My team and I literally increased productivity by 25 percent, reduced waste by 15 percent, and almost nobody called in sick.

When I brought it up, I was told "there wasn't room in the budget this year." Fuck off we saved so much money they could have DOUBLED our salaries and wages and we'd still be making record profit.

Edit: Sorry for the salty rant. Last year they showered us with Christmas presents and big bonuses and raises, and this Christmas they paid for like a dozen pepperoni pizzas from Little Caesars while giving a big speech how much money we made them.

That’s what cis white men want you to believe. It’s all part of big Alphabet’s attempt to control our sexuality using 6G and LGBTQ+ labeling from the Lizard people living beneath DIA. Now if you are paying attention, that’s a 6 from 6G, 6 symbols in LGBTQ+, and 6 letters in Lizard. 666, the number of the beast, is also the name or an Iron Maiden song. Maiden has six letters and the band is led by Bruce Dickinson. Who is another Bruce we know? That’s right. Bruce JENNER! Formerly Bruce Genner, with a G, before transitioning to cover up his involvement with the lizard people. Coincidence? I think not. It all comes full circle.
