Oh ya, the only sure fire way to get a raise is to change jobs/companiys. The human resources horsecrap process makes it so outlandish to give a raise that isn't around the inflation rate level that its almost impossible to get anything bigger. The supervisor has to go so far out on a limb to demand it that I can see why it doesn't happen until a pressure point is applied.

Two things:
1. Leaving your place of employment for another job that pays more isn’t getting a raise.
2. I think you already know what I’m gonna say.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.

Why wouldn’t the company fire him if he’s useless and does nothing all day?
Geez no wonder you can’t get a raise if the company is tying up so much money in voluntarily keeping unnecessary staff on their payroll.

I appreciate where people are coming from, but when you ask me how I'm doing during my cancer treatment, don't interrupt my shiort response to tell me you know how I'm feeling because you watched someone go through it.
You can empathize, but I can't even sympathize with other brain cancer patients because our situations are different.
The chemo fatique is so bad for me, by the time I've dressed, brushed my teeth, gone to the kitchen, made my breakfast and sat down in my chair, I feel like i've walked into a concrete wall and am ready to back to bed.
Like I said, I appreciate where people are coming from, but when I'm so fatigued, I'm ready to collapse and burst into tears, I can't handle your misguided sympathy.

You sound like you could use a laugh.
How are you doing?
NSFW!

Cancer is a dirty CNnt. People are stupid and short sighted and selfish. Medicine can do some amazing things these days, especially cancer treatments. Hope you will be one of those stories sister!
