Hey, Sad Admin
You make less than $2 more than the new federal minimum wage, for a professional job that requires education and probably a great deal of business skill? And you feel guilty for not telling your bosses you were looking for a job that would let you eat?
Judging from the way they reacted to the perfectly reasonable act of quitting for a better job, I would bet that things would have gone far worse for you if you had consulted them. They sound like spoiled, self-entitled babies. I bet they would have fired you.
You know, if you had decided to stay and their firm suddenly tanked, how much notice do you think they would have given you?
You did the right thing. Maybe they'll learn from this and pay your replacement what the job is worth.
Please tell me that those 3 execs are struggling financially, too. It always amazes me to have executives balk at paying people a decent wage -- how little would THEY accept for themselves?
Good luck -- and congratulations!
