Well, i have asked for a payrise (which has sort of been OK'd), just have to see where that leads and if i get one whether I consider it to be a reasonable one.... I've not announced to anyone of my intentions to leave the company yet, or actually been purposefully awkard or lax in my work so as far as im aware i'm still on good terms with work.
What I do however consider a complete insult is that i am one of the lowest paid engineers we have (we have 6 engineers) and only 3 of us work a 3-shift rota. As things stand out of all our engineers I have the most qualifications and i'm the one that all of the others phone up (day or night depending what shift im working) when they cant sort something out and i'll normally walk them through the faultfinding process over the phone or i'll just go into work (for a callout fee of course
) and sort it, not trying to deliberately sound bigheaded or anything but that's honestly how it has been for the last 3 years, that kind of an added insult to me.
