Sad face

I didn't get a payrise, of a bonus this year, first time. Really, I thought. Do you think I was a bit miffed? I was?

I'm thinking my nonappearance in the office was perhaps behind it. 

It crossed my mind to resign, I kept thinking all morning, I should just do it and get it over and done with.

But then, half way through the day, The Big Poo called me up especially to apologise for the lack of payrise and bonus. He just wanted to reiterate that he appreciated me and he was very pleased with my work, and what I do. (Yeah, but not enough)

He put in payrises and bonuses for me but 'they' knocked them back, whoever they are going up against the CFO of the Southern Hemisphere, so you have to wonder.

He said he should have fought harder for me and he was sorry.

He said he'd make sure I get looked after next year.

Really?

Next year?

Then i did some snooping and it seems that I was one of the very few who got knocked back, so make of that what you will.

Do you think evil HR is behind this, as I embarrass (their stupid arses) them on a weekly basis?

Or do you think it is our evil American overlords? Think The Good Wife?

Anyway, fuck them. It means I no longer have anything to lose? (I guess)
