It sounds like you’re being taken advantage of and need to leave your job.

If you think you’re worth more money, prove it, quit your job and find another one. Otherwise you’re just making excuses or aren’t as good at your job as you think.

Because its so simple to up sticks and find another job. You sound like a free-market neo-liberal. That is a bad thing, because in this comment you've demonstrated a thoughtlessness to the myriad obstacles that can be in an individuals way to seamlessly transition into other employment, like the comment suggests they can/should.

Please don't get me wrong, in some instances what your advocating would be the best decision. But you and I have no idea of the context of the pay dispute OG is talking about, so a less 'accusatory' tone is probably a wiser stance to take.
