Had a performance review with my boss .... got a promotion and a raise 😊

Awesome!

@rutee07 thanks, go for it.

whoop whoop congrats!

I also just realised that as a freelancer I will never get a promotion. :(

@balte A freelancer is itself the Boss

@ViRaS as @balte said, you're your own boss.

Very well done!

To those reading I want to say that you only get paid...

(Whichever is lowest)
1. What your worth
2. What you ask for

So to all them great devs like @uuid , Go ask for that raise! Do it!

✌🏼

@leanrob By that logic you should always ask for more than you're worth in order to be paid what you're worth? 🤔

or in dev terms
pay = min(ask, worth)

@uuid Congrats 🤙

@LordPeeve Yes.

Your logic is sounds and it works in the real world too.

If you ask for 100K, being worth 100K then there is a real possibility of being given 90-95K because... negotiations.

So ask for 110K (or 115K if your gutsy and have other offers to consider), expecting to take 100 if it is offered to you.

@leanrob I like the way you think, I have been doing something similar lately and have had good outcomes.

The nasty bit is working out what's gutsy and potentially losing it all.

ask = (worth + gutsy) * employerTolerance

where
employerTolerance = rand(-1, 0)

A few more iterations and I might publish a paper on "How to calculate the perfect remuneration" 😜

what a noob, just realised i have a bug 🙄

employerTolerance = rand(0, 1)

PR ready for review 😁

Hey that's a wonderful joke ! 😂
