I once found out my male counterpart made more than me. Because of this, I went to my boss and asked for a raise. His response was to tell me it’s a fireable offense to know someone else’s salary, that witnesses to murders get killed for a reason, and that he doesn’t believe in affirmative action. I know all of that is bullshit but he did say one thing that I’m now wondering, is this true? He said—never ask for a raise because your male counterpart makes more, ask for one because you deserve it.
