Whenever a manager at a company (especially a large one) says:
> I'm sorry, we cannot afford a raise for you at this time
…ask yourself if what they really mean is:
> I'm sorry, we cannot afford a raise for you and a huge payout (dividends, bonuses, etc) for the management and stockholders simultaneously, and our priorities are obvious.
You'd be surprised how often that's the case.
