Yeah, those are my thoughts exactly.. it's barely even a seniority thing, we have the same hire date. But someone has to be in charge, and that's him (he's older, more experienced, etc) ... which I don't necessarily have a problem with; that's a whole other topic.
I'm just scared about bringing it up and standing my ground. Our salaries are based on such a free market, it's hard to put your foot down.
