    got a 13 cent raise, that comes out to $5.20 more per week, be thankful you got more than most! :-)

    That's an extra $676/year. If you don't want it, you could always donate it to a charity of your choice every week. They'd be very grateful.

    that's an awesome idea! :-D

    I work in the private sector in the UK. We haven't had a raise in over 4 years.

    I would be officially a lot better off on benefits and staying at home and that is wrong.

    Wait until you see what it is after taxes!

    It happens to me all the time. Almost 90% of my raise goes straight to our rotten government & eventually in our f**** government officials' pockets & stomachs :grumble:

    I haven't seen an increase in 4 years. No benifits. No OT. But then again, not many jobs are as relaxed as this one. 3 time cut off a night to meet. handle anything left from day shift. Once the work is complete I can do what I like until the next cycle.
