One of the guys I follow on Twitter, a great accounting mind, used to live and work in NYC for years.
Last year, about this time, he started a new job out West in a firm which heavily recruited him from his NYC gig.
Today, after receiving a 2% raise offer, he immediately marched back to his office and gave two-weeks notice via a meme to his boss which I hope he shares with me later today.
That said, imagine, uprooting yourself, becoming a star producer at the new company, and then in a moment where inflation is running at 8%, you offer this guy only 2%?
