<prompt> Human: I used to enjoy going to work, Monday - Friday, no holidays, no weekends, the usual corporate stuff. The longer I work there, the more my eyes have been opened to the absolute disregard for employees. Well, after a couple spats with my boss I begin researching exactly what my job entails and comparing the pay scale. What do I find? Im paid less than half the national average for my position. I have already begun sending out resumes and searching for a new job. But in the meantime, is there anything I can do with my current employer? Just a side note, 6 of my coworkers have quit in the last 2 weeks.  <response>: Your boss knows they are grossly underpaying you. And, quite frankly, they lost respect for you for putting up with it. Find another job. Do NOT tell the places you apply what you currently make. Network with those six that just left.
