damn i haven't seen this meme in years

The manager said, "ah ok well, I wanted to let you know we were going to look to fill that position and offer it to you first before we announce it on the online system and put up fliers so other people can have a shot at it" She told her i was comfortable where I was at. Still, money talks. If she wanted me to do that job id be open to doing it for the right price. And it ended there.

I'm already planning to leave my job for a higher position in a better company with better pay, but I'm still just planning this step because it's a bit difficult for me right now, especially when it comes to the interview. I know AI has developed many tools, including InterviewMan, which achieved impressive success in the free trial. I'll subscribe and use it in my upcoming interviews.

A few days ago, my manager called me and offered what she called a 'graduation' to a higher position. But what's the problem? There's absolutely no change in my hourly wage. The biggest thing she was pushing was a slightly different shift, which honestly wasn't a huge advantage.

Luckily, the person who originally held this position - and whose last day with us was that day - gave me a very important heads-up as soon as I walked in.

Her exact words were something like this: 'Look, I'm leaving (she got a good promotion to a team lead position in another company branch). They'll definitely come to you for this spot; you're the obvious choice. But whatever you do, don't accept anything less than twenty-five dollars an hour. They'll try to make it seem mandatory, and they'll talk about you 'graduating,' but it's your decision alone. And they can't force you to take it!'

It's truly great when someone in a leadership position genuinely cares about their colleagues instead of just following company rhetoric. I always considered her a true friend, and this situation confirmed it for me.

"Do you see my car or me in the parking lot? No? Try again in the morning."
