I think everyone should try this little logical formula:
- Job offer = accept = work = be contented
- Job Offer = Reject = No work = look for another job
- Job Offer = Reject = NO WORK = ASK for more than you are worth = GREED = NO WORK.
In my experience I had accepted an offer which I was comfortable with which incidentally matches the same as my last job (in the UK tax free) even though I had the opportunity to get more through my influential insider in the company (what you call WASTA) but opted out because I think that’s what the job is worth.
Now if anyone complains about someone else’s salary then I guess they should look into the mirror every morning and ask themselves:
- Am I looking at a responsible person?
Then before going to bed do the same, look deep into the mirror and ask:
- Did I do my job responsibly today?
Note: Lookup the word “RESPONSIBLE” for a full meaning, and be honest with yourself when answering.
If the answer was yes then good for you, keep up the good work, you will get what you deserve shortly, however, if you answer NO to any of the above, then I suggest a reality check would be in order and fix it, otherwise stop being a burden on your colleagues and employer, do the sensible thing QUIT before you are forced to quit.
Someone mentioned “The grass is greener on the other side of the fence” in response “The grass is NEVER greener on the other side of the fence” believe me, I know, being there, done it and worn the T-Shirt.
