i'm getting a raise!!
last week GM took me out to lunch along with purchasing mgr, sales mgr and co-worker (price coordinator) lunch was a belated admin appreciation lunch- for me! guess i am the unofficial exec admin for the group. and i got a thank you card with a $100 amex gift card.
next day actual boss gave me my (glowing) review and said he would go talk to GM about getting me a raise. i saw him in the hallway after and he gave me the thumbs up! then he talked to HR and i should be getting my raise in this next paycheck.
it's so nice to know that my hard work is noticed and i am rewarded for it!
