No one gave me a heads up, so I thought it was a mistake, a computer glitch.
This is, after all, the first raise I've received in seven years.
I checked an inflation calculator, and you could argue that I'm still not keeping up with the cost of living.
On the other hand, I know my boss had to make the argument to his boss ... who had to take it to her boss ... who has never given me any indication that he knows I'm alive.
Am I confident that I'm no longer on the bubble? A little. Of course, this could just mean I get a little bit more in my severance checks.
Still, I insist on being happy about this.
Congratulations! :)
