My workload has increased severely, yet other people in the office received a pay increase when I was told no one would
Each Friday and Monday we publish the problems that will feature in a forthcoming Dear Jeremy advice column in the Guardian Money supplement so that readers can offer their own advice and suggestions. We then print the best of your comments alongside Jeremy's own insights. Here is the latest dilemma – what are your thoughts?
I have worked in my current position for almost two and a half years. During that time, my department's manager left and was replaced by another person who performs essentially the same level role (ie non-managerial) as me. Since his departure, I have taken on most of what his former role entailed, and received an increased workload with no offer of salary improvement.
At Christmas, about half of the office were told there would be no salary increases for anyone in 2013. I have just learned that many people did indeed receive a raise. I dislike intensely being lied to - what can I do (apart from find a better job!)?
