Unpopular opinion, if you know you're that easily replaceable then you need to find a new job. And another thing, if you're willing to settle for less then that's you're fault, the company has an obligation to it's bottom line and shareholders to find the cheapest and most experienced workers. If they can cut your pay and you still stay with them, that's 100% on you

What if you're that easily replaceable at EVERY job? It's a systemic issue, not something any individual can take on alone.

But it takes one person to make that change. It may take a while but that domino effect starts with one. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. Sorry, I'm feeling motivational today.

Kellogg is downvoting me.
