After 6 months of work in this startup I gave in my notice yesterday.

- Me: I decided to leave this position as well as this country because: 1. My side business is expanding and Im making the same salary like here, 2. My army drafting got postponed for this year and next year they cannot draft me anymore(because of the age gap), so basically I'm a free man and can go back to my own country, 3. I have some freelance gigs on the side as well, so having them plus fulltime job plus my own side businesses it's not sustainable.

- My project lead: What if we would increase your salary ?

-Me : No, as I said this is purely due to personal reasons

My project lead: What If we would hire another dev so that you wouldn't have to work alone on frontend?

-Me: ......

Seriously do they ever listen??? I'm telling you that I'm making nearly twice the salary that you are paying me, do you really think an extra couple hundred of EUR a month will make a difference?

    "Listen you cock sucking dip shit. I just fucking said that I'm leaving for my own personal reasons. Can you not get that through your thick fucking skull? Are you that fucking stupid? I. AM. NOT. GOING. TO. STAY. Mkay? Mkay."

    Should get the job done perfectly. :)

    My project lead: What if we would increase your salary ?

    You: I'd stay, of course. You only need to increase my salary four times. (or by whatever amount you estimate your business will grow + extra for risk and motivation).

    If he agrees to match your demands, then why leave?

    P.S. Sėkmės ;)

    @MrJimmy i saw people getting raises after first 4 months while they were under heavy mentoring. I worked my ass there (android dev) and handled my work alone with 0 mentoring. Even switched to do backend for 2 months when they decided to freeze frontend work. And they are offering me raise only after 6 months when I said that Im Ieaving. Fuck them
