So ive been at the same company for 7 years. I've moved up from phone agent to IT help desk tech. I have been the help desk tech here for 5 years, however.... I do the job of the system administrator and then some. help out 5 other sites. servers. sharepoint. etc etc. i went to the site director and my boss in Feb and said, and i quote "i need a raise or letter of recommendation" un quote. there was little to no response other than... well everyone is really busy so we haven't been able to discuss it... or we need to revisit and restart the conversations around it.

Good luck! I know how nailbiting this can be... leaving security for more compensation. But sometimes, you just have to do it. :thumb:

Indeed, your pay rise alone is not far from the highest salary I've ever been paid (when I was still being paid) xD .That's nuts! Congrats. I bet the feeling is surreal.

But don't forget those who you might consider friends who are staying behind. :D
I'm currently on the other side of the equation, two coworkers that I have worked closely with are leaving this week and it sucks seeing them go (glad they see a better future for themselves in where they are going don't get me wrong) and having to deal with their replacements.
It almost makes me want to leave but I have nowhere to go. :spam:

Wise. But maybe use something stronger to get the message across that you really don't care anymore. Industrial grade stank spray perhaps

Does axe deodorize well? I thought it was more of a cologne.

^ In Europe anyway we have a deodorant and an anti antiperspirant version, neither work particularly well
I heard a low carb diet works well for reducing body odor..

LOL. I received Axe sprays as gifts on a few occasions but I never really used them. When I say friends I know used them to cover up the smell of pot--I'm not referring to myself as a friend in the 3rd person, that's just weird. In the past when I did inhale I simply wouldn't leave the house. I envy the people that inhale and get **** done like it's completely normal. How the hell do they do it? Taboo stuff indeed

The majority do not get stuff done..
That's the drawback to most narcotics...
That's why coffee is legal vs the other hard drugs..
