You’re kidding me right? I just found out someone hired last year makes 20K more than me. We have the same title and similar books of business. How do I talk about this, who do I tell because I'm not okay at all.

This happens all the time. I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that person was hired after you. I don't know if you do talk about this to anyone, aside from venting to friends/family/Fishbowl strangers. You can bring it up to your boss, but unless you've got better justification than "they're earning more, I deserve the same," it's not likely to result in your pay being bumped.

It happens more often than you think.

Confession: The only in-law that I had a great relationship with passed away unexpectedly. The two remaining in-laws were on thin ice with me prior due to years of drama, nagging, and disgusting display of wealth. I believe their demand of money and general assholish behavior drove in law to his death. I love my S.O. but I can’t deal with the drama anymore.

I want to have a family and a future that is drama-free and full of love and don’t want to surround myself with negativity.
