My husband was in a situation earlier this month. He had been IT for an international comm. company for 4 years and instead of giving him the IT manager spot, they hired someone "older" to control him. Then, the "older" new IT manager stole a bunch of company shit and got caught in the middle of a sex triangle with one of the finance ladies and her supervisor boyfriend. So, this "older" idiot got fired and they made my dh "acting" IT manager. I forgot to mention that this company seats hundreds of pc's, servers, and has tons of networking issues. Well, my dh only had
1 IT guy under him, which is messed up all on its own because their sister companies in Monterrey, MX and in France have 40 IT and networking guys each!!!! Anyway, they keep delaying not only his much deserved raise (since he's doing the work of an IT manager and it severely understaffed), but they still haven't even hired more help. My dh would even do the interviews and gather a potential's resume, but they would just say, "Yea, we'll hire someone soon". This company was getting away with too much, so I told him to quit. He had been wanting to for a long time so when he saw that I was more than ok with it, he went in and quit!!!
He sleeps better now and got hired at a job that pays 4X more :)
Susie, I hope they give you the raise you deserve. I know that it feels like shit when you have people working WAY less and making more $$ than you, then start barking at you because certain impossible things didn't get done in 1 day. But, the only one that can change that situation is you, hottie. I really hope everything works out
