A person I work with is quitting. I was told it’s why I was trained in his duties on top of my own. I asked if I was getting a raise. They said they’d think about it which usually means no

Tell a boss like that to shove it.

I remember working for a guy like this. He never wanted to talk money. One day our driver had a heart attack. He asked me to fill in. I asked "how much were you paying him?" He said we don't need to talk about that right now. I said it seems like the perfect time to talk about it. I said I want what he was getting plus 10%. The boss said he couldn't believe I would take advantage of him.

I said well you just worked the last guy into a heart attack. You didn't go to the hospital to see if he was alright or anything. If I don't get a deal now when will I?

I helped him finish out the day, but I went back to my old job. He hired some chump to drive for him. I found a much better job a few months later.
