I understand your opinion here, and in fact I sort of share it, but having myself been in a situation where I affected the balance sheet in the low seven-figure range (in a good way) and received in return a good review and a 'keep it up', i.e. no raise or bonus, I can completely sympathize. It is maddening when people are buying expensive cars and nice homes with profits made possible by your work.

not everybody....only the person who tells me what to do ,writes emails all day and makes almost double my base and at least 5 times my bonus.

If the the desire to not get fucked over is being selfish...then so be it!
