I give you a hard time, but it’s all love at the end of the day man. Just now seeing this, but I understand what you’re going through. Just keep your head up and keep moving forward.

Your going to have to be prepared to move on. Get another job. If you want to stay, force their hand and tell them you want the promotion you've earned or your gone.

most of the time the quickest way to get a salary and/or title increase is to change companies

I told him I wanted to be a shareholder. He told me "you do what you do and I do what I do, nothing more is available right now". I got up, told him thanks (I was serious because I needed that clarification). 4 months later I took another sales guy with me, our lead operations guy and started the company we have today. We were backed by (at the time) a 90 year old company in Portland of which I am now one of the owners.

I laid in bed at night for several weeks saying wtf did I just do. My wife told me to grow some stones and get on with it. It is meant to be.


So I guess my point is this- You know your worth. If you are worth it, grow some stones and get on with it.

I love hearing success stories like this! Congrats

That's the American Dream in a nutshell.

I've been there. Got passed over for promotion after promotion because I wasn't a 'bro' and did my work at work, so I got fed up and just quit.

It was a great decision.

I see this every day. I've passed up several gigs because I refuse to let "work" become "life".

There's a lot of people above me that make A LOT of money but they have no time to spend it, no one left to spend it with/on, and so on.

At some point one has to ask what they want out of life and what that means for work. I haven't experienced any burnout since I finally decided that work=work and nothing more.

I agree. I work like that now because I choose to. Mine is self driven and dictated to advance myself, so I can eventually reach a point where I can work less and my family is secure. Eventually retire early enough to work not at all.

If that's not what you're shooting for then it's time for some reflection because yeah, life is not work.
