When your company says they fought hard for a raise - but knew there wasn’t enough money in the budget and a reduction in pay was coming.
So you get a raise for the last 3 months of one fiscal year and then they pull it back as the new fiscal year starts…then initiate a cut in pay, essentially wiping out your pay raise and even making you poorer.
Person 1: Hey, did you see we are getting a TSA Pay Raise this year?
Person 2: Yea, here comes 3 months of pay at the rate we deserve and then a fiscal year take back followed by a reduction in pay.
Person 1: There goes my morale. I think I’m going to try being a truck driver.
