Its has to do alot about the actual "grade" for me also. For years I've been the "acting" assistant foreman. Running a crew of guys who were all higher positions. I didnt get the grade that I'm supposed to be technically working, but now at least I'm even grades or higher than the guys on my crew.
My job is very political...if your not invloved you dont get nothing. I havent been invloved but had someone pushing for me for a long time, Trying to get me anything they can. And it finally fell through right after this years elections.

My boss made a big deal about me being only one of two in my dept to get a raise . . . it was a whooping 1% . . . which came after they pretty much desimated my bonus plan so all together I've lost about 30% of my income . . . thanks for the raise! Can't complain too much as I've got a job and they hooked me up with a home office which is cool.

I wasn't going to do it but I just can't resist.
When I read the thread title the very first word I was expecting to see in the post was herpes.
Congrats again. Enjoy.

Congratulations. You must be living right to get a raise in this economy. Our budget for raises seems to drop every year and I'm the guy who always delivers the bad news. Most people are happy with what they get...some people would complain if they got a 20% increase...I'm just happy to have a job at all. Toys and kids cost money
