In my experience only when you show that you are ready to leave tomorrow (potential with a competing offer on hands) do they finally consider to actually raise your salary to just barely match inflation.
You're completely right, and it's something I'm going to have to consider depending on how my meeting later goes. Either way, applying for a new role is probably the best idea.
My landlord wants more money, our water bill has just gone up, as has our electric bill. Everyone wants more money, and I'm just struggling to see how my wife and I are supposed to save to buy our own place. I know our situation is far from isolated; it just feels so exhausting.
