    I don’t have any expectations, nor do I care if I understand inflation. If i get a higher paying job, i will be ahead of the inflation.

    I don’t care what my current employer pays me, I do not negotiate. if i have to negotiate a higher salary with current employer i see that as evidence that my current employer being incompetent and not doing his job. This is ground for dismissal. So I find and move to a new company that pays my expected salary.

    End of the day, my purchasing power must remain the same or increase.

    So I just find a higher paying job that accepts my higher expected salary, fire my current boss, and move to the new job. It is not rocket science. It is just business, nothing personal. My service is a product, and its value rises with inflation.

    In fact the moment I start any job i start looking for the next one. In this way I am always trying to upgrade my skill so that I can get the next job.

    Don’t be loyal to your boss because they will never be loyal to you.
