[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the OP and I did not say anything about private sector raises![/quote]

It was a response to a response.  Someone suggested that you should be fine as a fed b/c you get step increases.  I suggested that those step increases are small and do not come annually.  I also suggested that people in the private sector are getting more like 3 percent raises.  Every one of my friends who works in the private sector got at least a 3 percent raise.    And in addition to that anecdotal information (from my direct experience), I read another thread on DCUM where people were reporting getting 3 percent and above plus bonuses.

That's where I got that assumption.  It comes from direct experience and from reading stuff on here.

But even if that is wrong, my entire point was that the step increases are small and do not keep up with the increases in health insurance premiums, the home repair costs, et cetera.

Sorry, OP, that my comment distracted the conversation on your thread (meant sincerely).  I should have known people would latch onto it and go bonkers.[/quote]
