  I am now, but 20 years ago I wasn’t and I still had my yearly performance review and talked to my boss about raises.

    most folks don’t have as blessed a career path as yours is.

    most people get nothing until they move companies.

      It’s not about getting a raise, it’s about asking for it.

      Anecdotally, my biggest raises were also switching jobs, but that’s not the point i (or the meme) was making.

    So you got a raise every year to either match or outpace the rate of inflation?

    Most performance reviews I have had my desire for more pay was dismissed.

      I don’t think my raises are relevant, the point is that nobody lost their mind. Did they lose their mind in your performance reviews?

        Yeah lol

        If they fucking start code switching and saying stupid shit to dismiss you for a reasonable request then yeah that is not of sound mind.
