Spoke to manager this morning.

She said she's escalating it as a "high risk" of me leaving and she will get back to me soon.

Let's see what happens.

Edit: absolutely wrecked today. Will be leaving early. Figure they owe me a few hours from the weekend?

Edit: She's spoken to the owner of what used to be the separate company. He's employed as SLT within the larger org. He's taking it to to the committee asap.
- Hate to say it, and I dont mean to be negative: But nothing you've told us thus far about these guys fills me with confidence that they are gonna do the right thing here.
  
  I'd keep on the seek path as a backup.
  
  Oh definitely still interviewing for other places this week. And made about a dozen more applications this morning.
  
  And theres the director dude I met the other day who's going to be my mentor.
  
  At least I'll finally have an answer instead of being fucked around.
  
  There is one other thing:
  
  I might be getting one of our month by month clients to sign a 12 month contract. Their MRR is 105k.
  
  For the moment, it's worth it for them to keep me happy.
  
  yes but that is *expected * of you. they are just the type of people to expect that rather than recognize the effort it took.
  
  Agreed. And so I'll be holding off speaking to the client about it until they decide about my raise lol
- Hope it all goes well for you and you hear back soon at least so you can start putting some steps in.
  
  I unknowingly spoke to a board member today about my own employment worries. Ooops!
  
  Thanks mate.
  
  Sometimes it doesn't hurt for someonen to understand how you feel.
- I saw you were working over the weekend. I hope you get the best possible outcome, whatever that ends up being
  
  Thanks man. I can stretch myself to 45 hours a week for the number I've asked for.
  
  But we'll see what happens.
