I posted a little bit ago about whether DH should ask for a raise. The resounding advice was DO IT!
Well, he finally asked this week. 2 days later, he was given an 18% raise!!! They're even going to make it effective Dec 1! He should still get another 3-5% annual raise on top of that Jan 1, and then a 8-10% bonus in the spring!!
His boss told him to write a summary of his accomplishments this year, but then his boss ended up doing it himself and gave DH a copy. I almost teared up reading it, it was so nice.
The past 2 year have been pretty shitty, but with my career change (also thanks to advice received here) and DH's raise, I'm really hoping 2015 will be a good one!
