I could go hang out in the PITT with Pete

And get murdered by the Russians.

Here's the bike in question.

[Joe]

That's a nice looking bike.

OK Derick, I'm in a mood about work too...

I didn't get a raise the year before because my old boss hated me. In fact I got pretty much written up when I got my review that year because someone heard me say the boss could "Eat a dick." He wound up getting fired for being such a dick so that problem I thought went away.

So this year's review was due back in March\April. Every once in a while I would remind everyone that I still needed it and would appreciate it if I got a raise too. As Christmas started approaching i started thinking about how much the raise and the retro pay would help out a lot with shopping. Finally I spoke up pretty loudly about getting my review before Christmas and I wound up getting it a week ago. I got like a 3.5% increase so with the retro pay I figured I should probably expect just under $1000 after taxes. When I asked my boss about the retro pay he told me he didn't know how that worked. A few days later one o the human resources guys was in our office and I asked him about it. He pretty much told me how they pay it out and I told him I wanted to make sure the money was released before Christmas.

A few hours later my boss's boss calls him and tells him that I went to HR trying to beat the system and tried to get paid for something I didn't deserve. Then my boss comes into my office and tells me that they aren't doing retro active increases anymore and that I need to let it rest before anyone else at the corporate office gets involved. So basically I'm out all of the money I would have gotten if they would have given me my review back when I was supposed to get it and I'm not allowed to talk about it.

Tonight I'm supposed to go out with one of my clients along with my boss and the sales guy for drinks. I'm so put off by the whole situation that I'm going to bail at the last minute.

I get that. Its like being kicked in the nuts and having no ambition to actually do anything positive. I honestly have no drive to want to be there anymore.

[Derick]

Great and my boss at the hospital called in sick, so I cant even talk to him about what is happening, whether or not we can work something out where I can stay

That sucks Joe.

leneve - you might be willing to pay for extras, but keep in mind, the bike is only worth what the bike is worth. Same goes for cars/trucks. You dont get a premium price just cause you put on aftermarket errthing

[Derick]

joe - call the corporate office, see what they say

Joe might be going on a spree.
I think I would be.

[Derick]

oh yeah. Totally get that. I'm pretty much going to stick to my offer of 750. and if he can get the 2000 he wants then good for him. I don't see that happening though. bad time of year to even try and sell a motorcycle.
