Same boat. No pay increase, meanwhile life staples such as bread, milk, clothing, utilities, gas, insurance.... go up. My work switched insurance plans to a High Deductible plan Only, so if any thing serious happens to anyone of my family, I pay out of pocket until I reach a very high deductible. I am afraid if that would happen I would have to consider bankruptcy because I do not make enough money in order to save thousands of dollars to pay for anything unexpected. Whats ironic is that I work for a major health care corp that made billions of dollars last year, yet they cant provide affordable healthcare or take care of their own employees!
