Due a freeze and cutbacks, plus a significant lowering of our top pay rates for what are referred to a "support personnel" (i.e., clerks and admins) I had not had a raise in 10 years--until this March, when I received the princely sum of 1%.  Until that time, my work was considered the equivalent of a first-class mechanics' but apparently not any more........trying not to sound bitter.
