    The ones organizing the best. You can see that with unions, politics and a lot of other things. Falling number of people of working age can be dealt with somewhat by forcing people to work. Any way to fight it or even reduce working time per person, by a shorter work week, earlier retirement or even work day helps. Obviously it also depends on industry and global competition. However it currently looks like the system of globalization is splitting up a bit.

      A few people at work keep complaining about pay but always do it in comparisons. Like “my role was advertised for 3k more than I am on” when talking about an advert that closed ages ago and I didn’t see.

      I’ll tell anyone exactly how much I am on with the most bare minimum of prompting or mention of pay.

      The people complaining most are in roles that from what I can tell require a lot more than mine and I get the impression the pay increase isn’t as much as it should be. For my role specifically I feel fine. For theirs I would want like +10k minimum and I wonder if its more like +2k.

      Or take it to get the role in my job history and start looking for a similar role somewhere else fairly quickly. Hey, I think I know why the last guy left so soon…
