Stay strong minded and don't give in to the desired weakening of your resolve. They want to slowly move your mind to a place where you are happy with a 10 or 15% raise....where you feel lucky just to have a job and a couple coins in your pocket.
Spot on....
Lots of wannabe's poking their nose here. The scary part to me is slow and his accurate but intellectually dishonest 11% pay increase to match WN argument...because he works "for us."
Back to the poster in question, we aren't "selling a house" this is a contract for compensation for services performed.
The compensation is the motivation to help the corporation excel and surpass the competition. I have no doubt that the top brass at Delta realize the unique advantage of having a content workforce that enables execution of their plans.
Delta is and has been exceedingly profitable against a difficult environment, the profitability is the "market"...
