I saw someone announce a promotion recently. Before they shared the good news, they said, “This is not a flex, but…”

Has it really come down to this?

We can’t be happy for someone else’s good fortune?

We can’t celebrate someone else’s win?

Thoughts?

Everything gets called tone deaf now. I’ve been in some bad situations and have never once faulted somebody else for getting something they deserved. People let their own circumstances cloud everything.

Yes it’s really sad to see. I almost feel like you can’t really be proud of your accomplishments or celebrate your wins without someone calling you out as a show off or putting a target on your back. What have we become as a society?

It's not too uncommon for me to see a post online of someone complaining about work and receive comments like "well at least you have a job." A lot of people have become so bitter about their own circumstances that they no longer have the ability to be happy for others.

On an initial call with a company's recruiter, I was told the salary range. I said that the base pay is lower than what I make now, but with equity it's about equal, so it would be ok. If I actually receive an offer after the interview process, can I ask the company to match or at least get closer on the base pay? I'm also up for promotion this year so like to get a higher salary, but not sure if by saying "ok" to the recruiter's salary range that it'd look bad to ask for more later.c
