Yeah, but in capitalism you're in competition with the work place. Prove your worth and fight for your value or go find another job. Or, start a business like a creative human.
"Prove your worth and fight for your value...". I think this is the thing that is different today. The reward to the employee for proving their value never materializes.
Then you leave. Enough people leave and the demand for workers goes up. To get workers, incentive goes up. Incentive is wages. Or start a business and name your own price.
Exactly my advice to my kids. I have a hook in me via a significant lump sum pension. My kids will not, and, have the counsel to be aware of the game and move on to the next job, better title, and pay increase quickly.
