  Hate to say it, and I dont mean to be negative: But nothing you’ve told us thus far about these guys fills me with confidence that they are gonna do the right thing here.

  I’d keep on the seek path as a backup.

    Oh definitely still interviewing for other places this week.

    At least I’ll finally have an answer instead of being fucked around.

      If you’re in that headspace always, always leave. You’re done. You’ll not be able to let past transgressions go. But don’t burn bridges, and you can potentially go back in the future.

      Also by leaving you’ll get a pay bump, and then if going back a pay bump again.

        I get where you’re coming from. But due to circumstances, right now the best option is to get the raise, stay for another 6 months then leave.

        I can’t do another probation right now. It’s a very, very dangerous time for me. It’s insanely stressful.

        As difficult as work is right now, it’s still less shit than jumping straight into another probation.

        As long as I get the raise.

        Otherwise, I’ll take another offer straight away.

    There is one other thing:

    I might be getting one of our month by month clients to sign a 12 month contract. Their MRR is 105k.

    For the moment, it’s worth it for them to keep me happy.

      yes but that is *expected * of you. they are just the type of people to expect that rather than recognize the effort it took.

        Agreed. And so I’ll be holding off speaking to the client about it until they decide about my raise lol

  Hope it all goes well for you and you hear back soon at least so you can start putting some steps in.

  I unknowingly spoke to a board member today about my own employment worries. Ooops!

    Thanks man. I can stretch myself to 45 hours a week for the number I’ve asked for.

    But we’ll see what happens.
