    I wonder if my company will switch me to hourly.
    That in and of itself would likely result in a 100% pay increase.
    I would love a swipe card in my office for hourly wage.

    I know a guy for whom this is literally true, and it's sad as hell. Mental illness is no joke.

    Who, the realtor?!? Just because he takes so many pictures of drinks, doesn't mean he's got no feelings and belongs in the Looney Bin!
    Mental illness can be as funny as you let it be. Take veganism, for example. What were the bees going to do with that honey?!?

    I like it when vegans argue if fungi count.

    I got a 15% bump, but that also coincided with a 'levelling-up' of my position to take some more responsibility, but my bills have definitely increased more than that

    Fellatio isn't the same as inflation, Dummy! It's a fish sandwich at McDonald's. The Fellatio-Fish.

    Yah they got a one time wage inflation adjustment of 8%. Heard some folks in the sands, not sure which company, didn't get a wage inflation adjustment. Instead they got a cash bonus... $30k. Taxed of course.
    I only heard of the bonus payment. Most of us in this industry have received nothing.

    However they did cut our long term incentive bonus this year. So there's that...........

    Fact is, when inflation like this hits, the business is *already* hit with increased expenses. Then on top of that, they are expected to provide a cost of living increase to help reduce the strain of inflation to their employees? I mean, it's a great gesture and I'd love to give every one of my employees a raise, but I'm not sure that's realistic for most businesses.
    These companies sell a product or service of some type, which is generally sold at a cost adjusted price based on inflation. If they're making the revenue to offset the inflation, it seems more than prudent to ensure your employees are not being ruined by the inflation.

    Da fak kinda industry is this
    Sounds like O&G consulting to me. But I imagine it's fairly common across the board for blue collar work.

    My guess is IT because the majority of the time O&G consultants take a sizeable pay cut in total compensation going from contractor to employee.

    On flat hourly rate, yes. With total compensation, not even close. There's no way they could lure me back to private for anything less than 150$/hr minimum. And those rates are almost non existent.
