i'd love to see a pay rise, we've been on a pay freeze for nearly 5 years now, as colin said if you take into account the raise in inflation and living costs i'd say my pay is been cut by 2.5% every year for the last 5 years. and my responsibilites have gone up. there are also talk of redundancy and changes to the pay structure for purely performance only related gains.
at the end of the day i'm happy i have a job that keeps the fuel in my tank and the roof over my head, and i keep my eye open for suitable promotions that would give me the pay increas i want.
