Public math is always messy and embarrassing, let me try to embarrass myself again

. Your last raise was Mar2012, Mar2013 = 1, Mar2014= 2, Mar2015= 3, Mar2016= 4. Wait, I over-counted by 4 or 5 months since the deal moves the DOS to Nov. Call the difference between Nov and Mar your real raise. The overall point is that the company didn't even give us our 'normal' 3%/yr since the last raise (not over the amendable period as I mistakenly said before).
