Episode 77: Boss Wants Me To Speak and The 2% Raise

This week Jamison and Dave answer these questions:

1. My boss wants me to speak at conferences, but I’m very new to software. What should I do?
2. How do I get more than a 2% raise? That is the company average.

We talked about conferences a bit more way back in episode 6.

We also talked more about playing the salary game in episode 23, which is a technique for sharing salary information with your co-workers.
