I've graphed my income since 2008. For a annual review,I inflation adjusted that salary from ,,2008 to today. In my mind, since ,,2018 it seemed the company's upgrades in pay were lagging.

So I graph it all and compare my pay with job descriptions at bls?gov.

It looked like since 2015, inflation has been eating my bottom line and even a professional cert bonus was clawed back by the company, etc. It took just a ,,8% raise to stagnate the decline this year.

I think prices and stock market values have distorted our perception of actual wages.
