Congratulations, Norma! Every bit helps. With the rising gas prices, your raise came just in time!

My mom just mentioned how excited she was about her $.35 an hour raise. $14 a week doesn't seem like much, but like you said, it adds up and every little bit helps!

Norma, that $897 a year! That will certainly help!

Congratulations on getting the raise and for voicing your concerns at work about the increased cost of your commute! Good for you!

Congrats! Every little bit does help and the price of gas is only going to get higher.

In today's times that is a big deal.

I have made the same wage since 2004. Ugh. But so grateful to have benefits.

The last raise I had was in 2008, and it was a lot more.

Catching up from my trip, Norma, but wanted to say Congrats on the raise - and I am sure very well deserved.
