[quote=Anonymous]Okay, so, my boss makes about $750,000 per year.  (He is a partner at a large law firm, I am his assistant) He constantly complains to me about being broke.  He expenses everything, even when he pays $1.00 for a drink while on business.  I brought up the issue of my salary to him because reviews are coming up and I was hoping he would put in a good word for me to get a decent raise.  The most I've ever gotten for a yearly raise works out to $0.95/hour.  He asked me how much I currently make, and I told him - $58,000/year.  He looked at me, and with a straight face, said "That's a lot already".  EXCUSE ME?  $58,000 is not a whole lot when you consider how expensive DC is.  Then, just a few hours later, he comes and gives me receipts to do an expense report for him, and tells me to do it immediately because he's broke and needs the money asap.  Gah!

How can someone who makes $750,000/year complain about being broke, then turn right around and tell me $58,000 a year is a high salary?!?
