[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We both have the same support position.

When she was first hired she was very motivated and open to learning. I was tasked with training her and it has taken her a year to accomplish all the task the job demands. As well as multitask and jump in when needed.

Lately, she has been commenting/complaining about the workload and pay. I know she got a raise at the 3 month mark and then another one at her 1yr. anniversary.
Her salary is now almost same as mine but she thinks I make a lot more because I have more "senior" responsibilities which leaves her to do more basic/tedious work.

When she told me her salary, she did, I was a bit shocked [b]she was actually making almost the same as me[/b] who have been with the company 5 years. I also understand how the market works and I enjoy my job so that's not an issue for me. The issue is that she feels she should get paid more because her workload has increased since she got hired (which is common with any job) and I sense some weird resentment not towards me necessarily but our management/supervisors.

She doesn't have the skills and experience for the tasks I do and I know she thinks I make a LOT MORE money than her. Which I don't. 
I personally think the company is paying her too much but I don't control that.

[b]Should I bluntly tell her we both make the same $$[/b] and shut her mouth?

So you want to lie to her? What's the point of that?[/quote]

I make 3% more...  She's younger than me. I think she thinks I make millions!
