I had my annual review a few months ago, when I asked for a pay rise I got told that no one would get a pay rise this year as there was absolutely no room in the budget for it.
I handed my notice in a couple of weeks ago and the company is now advertising for a replacement. They're asking for a person with less qualifications than me but are offering more money than I'm on!
The company is offer a very rare product so whoever thy get they're going to have to spend a good few months training up.
I haven't really got a question. I'm just angry and want to vent. I find it so incredibly insulting that they refused me a pay rise but now have enough money to pay this new person more.
And I'm bloody good at what I do.
