You missed the second half of the quote. It is clear he was talking about a salary 20-30k above what he was already making. Now, you may point out that's still not a lot of money, but it's not a salary in the 20-30k range.

He then said that he answered the question of what he made, was told a $20k bump was to much, and was offered a lower (X,000) bump instead because they assumed that's all they needed to do.

No, I didn’t miss it and it doesn’t change my point - asking for a $20k raise is peanuts.

It doesn't change your point, but the way you cut quote was misleading.

No, it's not, because companies hire more than 1 person.
