Don't be a woman asking this male boss for a raise

Asked for a well-deserved raise, on my one-year anniversary after showing great productivity, attitude and performance. His response? A 72-cent-an-hour increase. I pointed out that I can't afford to continue living in this city unless I make more. He said, "Sexist, I know, but seriously, you just need to find a rich guy."

In his world, single women in their 40's who need to support themselves just don't exist. They're probably all gold-diggers at heart, and why pay them what they're worth when they can prostitute themselves to some sugar daddy.
