Worker Refused Raise, Gets New Job, Boss Counter Offers With Double Current Salary


It's often said that no one appreciates the work that you do until you're gone. Sometimes the best thing that you can do is take a vacation to prove your worth. Although, a toxic workplace will probably just find some way to blame you for not "leaving things in a good place" before you go on leave.

In a similar fashion, your employer will never appreciate you for what you're worth until they are forced to face continuing on without you. Then you will even find yourself to be surprised at how much you were actually worth to them.

Redditor u/ApprehensiveDoggo shared this story on Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit, describing their experience with an employer who refused to give them a raise.

This whole post just begs the question… Why weren't they just already paying them the value of the counteroffer if they were worth that much to the company? If they had been earning close to that to begin with they probably wouldn't have gone looking for other jobs.

Read on to see screenshots of the post and some of the reactions. For more employment drama check out this job-seeker who torched an interview by calling out the interviewer for lying.
