December 31, 201213 yr Agreed. My only point was you can't blast Obama for this and that this isn't really that huge of a deal. Ditto.:thumb:
December 31, 201213 yr Author Yeah, for you. When someone is making 174,000 and then after the raise they are making 174,900 that's peanuts. how many X (times) 900.00 dollars, what will it equal too?
December 31, 201213 yr how many X (times) 900.00 dollars, what will it equal too? I don't understand the question.
December 31, 201213 yr Author I don't understand the question. How many people will be getting the raise and what would the total be, I'm sure we don't know how many federal employees there are so I guess it will end up being a lot.
December 31, 201213 yr How many people will be getting the raise and what would the total be, I'm sure we don't know how many federal employees there are so I guess it will end up being a lot. My understanding it is congress and Biden.
December 31, 201213 yr Still not enough of a raise to ruffle my feathers. Bad timing? Yes. Should he wait? Absolutely. Does it bother me? Not at all.
December 31, 201213 yr Author Getting a raise when we are so far in debt and with so little progress on anything in congress upsets me, they haven't earned a raise IMO and should suffer with making house payments, electric bills, gas, groceries, etc.
January 1, 201313 yr Still not enough of a raise to ruffle my feathers. Bad timing? Yes. Should he wait? Absolutely. Does it bother me? Not at all. It's just bad form right now PP. Sets a bad example when a lot of us are struggling financially.
January 1, 201313 yr It's just bad form right now PP. Sets a bad example when a lot of us are struggling financially. That's what I said. It just doesn't bother me. I get a 3% raise in February. Who am I to judge?
January 1, 201313 yr That's what I said. It just doesn't bother me. I get a 3% raise in February. Who am I to judge? I hope you get a 300 percent raise. Your salary is not paid by taxpayers.
January 1, 201313 yr Raise will be revoked as part of the fiscal cliff agreement. That's the right thing to do in this climate.
