And what about the guy who was hired two years ago at $5.15?
He worked hard, got a raise to $5.50.

He worked well, got a raise to $6.00.

He worked very well, got a raise to $6.50.

Now he's gotta watch as the new kid (if they hire one) gets the same thing he gets.


..."I agree with you 100%! Except now he'll get his raise to $7.25 instead of to $6.50. (unless he gets laid off)

Except now he'll get his raise to $7.25 instead of to $6.50.

That's what I meant - the rookie gets the same pay as the guy who's been there two years.

So the boss has to raise HIS pay a couple of bucks, watch him go somewhere else, or raise him to min wage and do without the new guy.

Good choices those are not.
