Seems a no brainer to leave so really especially if you aren’t overly close to anyone you are working with.
What’s keeping you there except familiarity?

Real meaning. “The budget isn’t there for you but there is an extra 25% budget for an external hire”.

You can become institutionalised, very easily. 'd have never left the place i worked for up on 15 years only for the job was made redundant. It was a super place to work and i was in terrific teams with great people. They made a shot of us redundant before christmas and then were taken over. I went back after 12 month moratoriun following redundancy but it just wasn’t the same place.
It can be daunting to leave but its your market copper. You’re a grand fella and will have no problem settling in to a place

let the boss do most of the talking, and have no fear of uncomfortable silences: he’ll want to fill them so may venture more information than he was willing to give
That’s the gas part. You could keep someone with a 10-15% off cycle but wouldn’t get it approved. No problem to put a new hire on the correct grid though.

We’ve lost four of the six in my team since Christmas. Lads with 5-10 years company experience walking out the door and people with 3-4 years semi-relevant experience coming in on considerably more money. It’s absolutely nuts.
Jesus. You’re the lad they were carrying obviously.

You’ve reached the answer there yourself. To borrow from Buff - Out, Out, Out……
More money with possibly a little more responsibility but you’re moving upwards. You’re young and clever, thank him for everything and part on good terms for the fucker you piss on while on the upslope might just nail you on the other one.

You can do that from home.
How did things turn out with the girl who had a tendency to smoke cigarettes after? Did you get a chance to broach the issue with her?
