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.
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.
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.
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?
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)
It’s almost as though the governments should do their jobs and fucking put cost controls. Seriously, we need some new economic thought/ practice. Just like how several generation’s ago they figured out that wages are sticky, they need to put cost caps or restrictions to stop this shit. Instead of cutting the money supply and people’s lifelines, they need to fucking tell businesses to cut the crap and stop the bullshit. Since then pandemic every industry feels like they can price gouge and get away with it. It’s fucking ridiculous. If you put a stop to that, then you have some hope of resigning in inflation.
3% raise, huh? How about no raise
'Muricans flexing with 3% inflation
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.
You fuckers are getting raises??! Goddammit, you’re part of the problem!
More like greed. Inflation because they have record profits, pay their employees less *(relative to inflation )and charge more for their products

Jump jobs if you haven’t recently done so. Sometimes you can get almost double the pay.
