I'm no fucking expert, but I've been around this shit show of a world long enough to realize that "economy good" equals Stockmarket is good which translates to rich people are still getting richer so fuck NBC
My company is expanding, and my career is actually going in a direction I want, but I haven't seen an equivalent rise in my pay.
So the economy might be good, but my income remains the same, and that doesn't make me feel like the economy is all that great.
I've gotten about 10% more the last three years but I've changed jobs once, changed positions twice at the original job, interviewed a dozen times for jobs where no one would commit on a salary.
It just took a lot of work. Work that I did and was a fight the entire way. If I'd stuck around in my original position I'd be at 2.5% raise each year give or take a half point. That's not beating inflation 10 years ago let alone today.
