1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

I had the conversation with my boss this week that if I need better pay, then i'm going to quit because I know raises that the company allows won't get me there. He agreed with me 100% but doesn't have enough control with the mothership to give the raises he wants. It sucks - common problem across the board with companies.


We'll see how it goes this year. Last year was disappointing, even though my performance was 'above average'. Supposedly due to inflation raises will be more robust this year, but i'll do the math and see where I land.

 

Things are fucked up right now.

 

Hypers

 

Yup. Companies don't understand the value of their employees, or how hard it is to get good ones. Some of my coworkers are *the* experts in their subject areas and would be damn near impossible to replace if they quit. We're even looking for a guy right now with a particular expertise in the industry because ours is about to retire in a couple years, and its just tumbleweeds out there. Feels like we might have to train someone up from scratch.

If we quit because they won't pay us what we're worth - thats a serious problem.

 

For your unicycle?

 

A place of legend

 

i wanna be rich too!!

 

Lol.

 

I bet that thing is amazing to drive! My sister had a reg model non s mini w a manual and it was so fun. Not fast but handled so nice.

 

We're hiring in Mesa, AZ btw. If you have an EE degree that's about the only real requirement

 

Oh I pissed off some people for sure when it finally hit them that Im out the door. I was pretty irreplaceable at that place. What 99% of factories have to pay out the ass and contract out, I did in house for pennies on the dollar.

Sucks for them I guess.

 

They really are a blast. Even the non S three pot models are super fun, and those are still fast enough around town to have a good time without having to worry about getting in trouble.

 

You lost me at Mesa Az

 

Fun fact: Those detect shitboxes too!

 

The starting salary might make you reconsider

 

yeah def! She traded it for an auto clubman s cause she had a kid. Told her not to. I was so pissed. She realized later that it was a mistake.

 

I doubt it

 

Ah bummer. Though the Clubman JCW version has 301hp...woulda been more fun haha
