I'm in ATL and just got an email that one of my local dealerships is being incentived to sell 50 vehicles by the end of this month. They're saying they're motivated, but I don't see any other discussions of this going on. Anyone else seeing this?

For what it's worth, they're celebrating 6mos with about 25% of their 2023 ionic 5 fleet, they're about to hit 6 months on their first ioniq 6, and they have a couple ioniq '22s that have had a birthday on the lot.

I work in a mid sized national company in IT and do well for myself, over 6 figures but I've requested an additional raise.

I have access to the salary data of everyone at each of our local branches, and I'm essentially asking for what each local branch owner makes (~200k), while also knowing that the hourly workers are still barely getting $1-2k raises.

I'm all for eating the rich, but how's this figure into the mental model?

On one hand, the "rich owners" turned out to not actually be that rich, at least salary wise. I'm comfy, but inflation has been a bitch.

On the other hand, I'm asking for a raise while others who work manual intensive jobs are still struggling, and this amount of money could be going those at the working hourly.

Hoping this drives some interesting conversation and not some attack thread.
