    No. It would be better to hang with it and keep trying for that raise. Or Genuinely look to go somewhere else and give resume to other places.

    Not necessarily. Have a conversation with your current boss about your performance and would like to either seek a promotion or pay increase. If that doesn’t work for you then yes a new job is a possibility.

    Helped learn how to be dedicated towards something and work hard. Advancing Myself and growing is how it affects the pay. Helps land a foot in the door.

    Just accept you are not going to get a raise to cover the insurance being five to ten times what it was a couple years ago & the price of everything else going way up. Time to pick up a second or third side job to supplement like most of us are having to do.

    I've always received better offers from other companies before it was time to ask for a raise. When asking the current company to match the offer, they claimed they can't go as high. I always ended up taking the offer.
