i worked so hard

I worked 12 hours straight and got a $1 raise. My boss said, 'That’s all I can do.' I said, 'That’s all you can do? You’re a ghost.'

I trained for a year and got promoted. My boss said, 'You’re lucky.' I said, 'I’m lucky? I feel like I got stabbed.'

I took three bullets for this company and got a coupon for a free coffee. That’s not a raise. That’s a insult.

I worked nonstop for a month and got a thank you note. I threw it in the trash and said, 'You don’t even know me.'

I did all the work and got a thank you note. I said, 'I didn’t come here for a thank you. I came here for a raise.'

I got promoted and got a thank you note. I said, 'You’re giving me a thank you note instead of a bonus? I’m going to start crying.'

I worked my ass off for six months and got a raise that was so small, my ass said, 'I didn’t even get a raise.'

I trained for a year and got a raise that was smaller than my disappointment. I said, 'You just broke me.'

I worked so hard that my feet were bleeding and got a raise that made my feet cry. That’s not a raise. That’s a punishment.
