So yesterday I had my yearly appraisal, it went very well with very little to complain about on both sides
Even better when they discussed the pay rise, which was rather quite significant and much more than I was even dreaming of, especially as there is no added responsibility.
The missus knows there was potentially a pay rise on the cards but a much lower value.
I have so far elected to say nothing, and told her it hasn't happened.
There is 2 reasons, I already pay for most things and still get complained to that things we agreed she would pay she doesn't want to. Last week I had to buy clothes for our son, not a problem but we worked the budget so that we use the child tax credits for that. And this week I asked for money out of the Xmas pot that I put most the money in for, we use the old savings account we had to save for our wedding and she has access to it.(to buy the wife the expensive gift she wants this year) and started getting the 3rd degree of where my money is, (I have it but im trying to save for a new garage door).
There is also talk from her that she wants to reduce her working hours or even give up work and advises I need to earn more money to enable this....
Question is, should I tell her or not?
