Last week, I discovered that all the other vets in my current Farm only practice had gotten cost-of-living wage increases. I can't help but feel a bit pissed that I'm the only one excluded. Am I wrong to feel undervalued? It's not even about the money. It just feels like a slap in the face not to be deemed worthy of a cost of living pay rise. And no, it was not a merit-based increase. Literally, every single other vet was emailed and told they were getting an automatic pay rise. I recently turned a job down because I enjoy mixed work, so this hurts.

I would absolutely ask if you were singled out. I could understand this if you were just recently hired on at a higher rate than the others, but if everyone else received a cost of living increase, you should ask why you didn't receive one. Is there a possibility that there was a mistake? That sounds like something that would just happen across the board.

What do you think is the reason? Have you tried reaching out to your boss or manager? This is outright discrimination if they do not have valid reasons.

Hi there! Do you mean they all had practice experience? So maybe that's the reason?
