No CD at all? No gcd, ecd or cco?

Someone who should find their GCD and have a beer together.

If you have no boss and you’re leading the work, ask for the goddamn title. If they don’t give you the money bump, make them “pay you in title” and shop yourself around as a cd.

Making less money, and not getting laid off for making too much money.
