When you were hired and they said you had a competitive salary, what they really meant was that your salary was always going to be competing with your bills. With inflation up like this and eggs costing a much as a gallon of gas, how many of us have asked for a raise in the last 3 months? Employers always have some excuse like 'quarterly goals' or 'slow season' or something that feels a lot more arbitrary than your ability to pay rent. No offense to your boss, but that would explain your bad attitude lately. So keep up the grimace in your cubicle– maybe your moodiness will wear them down enough to eventually give you that raise you deserve. Or maybe they'll just plan another Friday afternoon pizza party to salvage morale.
