I am so mad right now. I had my yearly review today...second one since I've been working here. Last year's review was great, I got a $1.25 raise and they had no real complaints. $1.25 isn't much...but since it was my first year here, I was happy with it. Some new goals were set for 2006, etc.
My review today went great. Once again, no real complaints and I met (and far exceeded) all the goals that were set for me for 2006. I have some new goals for 2007 and was told that I was going to be "swamped" with new projects, purchasing and covering for my boss when she goes on maternity leave for 2 months. So why, pray tell, did I get a measly $0.62 raise? Less than half of what I got last year! I wanted at LEAST $1.75 raise. Who gives a $0.62 raise anyway??? Ugh.
I am mad, but that's a secondary emotion. I'm first and foremost INSULTED. I just don't get it. If what I get paid is what Jay and Sarah think I'm worth...they are nuts. I took a pay cut to work here 2 years ago with the hope that once they saw what I could do, they would surely give me a good raise. So...I'm going to take the long weekend to cool off and I'll probably go talk to my boss and the President on Tuesday about this. I will also be looking for a new job. If they are not willing to pay me what I'm worth, I will find another company that will. 
Oh, and RON and ROBERT MAYO- SHHHH... You're the only ones around here that will read this.
