"guys and girls, hot off the press 40% pay rise and a share option on world football inc......all coming in jans pay packet"
"i saw 40% written on some toilet paper that a cleaner was picking up and thought that it was a valid source of info!! moreover i just wanted to see if people really do think that we will ever get a payrise??"
"shyte is the point, i took the 40% out of my arrssee and put it on pprune and some people take it seriously!! we are like pavlovs dogs, one mention of cash increase and we slaver like hungry dogs!"
Is it any wonder that this is confusing, it is obvious that compared to other professions out here and compared to EK and EY that we require a pay rise. When you put a number out and one that sounds high but takes us to Etihad salary, then yes, people myself included fall for it. But I do take offence at being accused of basically being an idiot for assuming you may be well informed. The tone with which you submitted your first post was that of someone who knew what they were talking about and it has supported what many friends have been told in meetings recently. If you have any real information, then great but for sarcastic posts please make a more conscious effort to make your sarcasm obvious!
