<prompt> Human: Trying to verify my train of thought makes sense, as the others in my department seem to think this is worse than I do...Over-simplified, my office is split into a Sales area and a Service one. I started with the company about two years ago, in a position that was being newly created that was envisioned with elements of both sides in the duties. Because it was supposed to play into sales, I was included in the companys monthly incentive program. My base pay started at 65k now about 67 and in the last two years the incentive, while variable, has pushed me between 82 - 85 by the end of a full year.Over time it became apparent that the job in reality does virtually nothing on the sales side - Im essentially cut into a bonus I do nothing to increase. So yesterday my boss summoned a meeting to tell us that we would be removed from the monthly incentive. However, to account for the lost income, they took the last two years average of the monthly incentive and are increasing our salaries by that much - my new wage will be 84k. We might also be included in a much smaller annual incentive for the service side.I feel like, honestly, this is a win. The bonus checks each month were exhilarating, but hard to plan around since they could be from 300 - 3000 depending on time of year. Now my earnings will be more consistent across the year, not to mention that our annual raise will be a of a larger number and I can have the argument of my current base pay is X should I ever be in the market for a new job.The only downside I can see is the hypothetical of the sales team going absolutely bananas at some point in the future where I would have earned more more appropriately - been given more for nothing. Which seems to be what the others are put out by.Would I seem to be on the right tack?  <response>: Your mindset is right, congratulations on the win-win.
