Vent: I was at a coffee shop in Portland and overheard a guy bragging about how he got a 20% raise just by asking. Made me realize I haven't even asked for a cost of living bump in 3 years.

Time to schedule that awkward talk with your boss.

Schedule that talk and just ask for a raise in Portland dollars, maybe they'll pay you in artisanal toast. I love how @sean_murray calls it an awkward talk, like it's less "career growth" and more "can I have my allowance." Honestly, hearing stuff like that is the only performance review I ever get, it's a real public service. Three years is a long time to just hope they notice you haven't had a bump since before that weird tiger show.
