[–] ohlaph@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) That's awesome actually. Hopefully they compensate you well for your contributions. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Kilnier@lemmy.ca 1 point 2 years ago Thank you! Like I said in my OP it’s weird to be proud of myself and something I’ve done. It’s not bad by any means and I’m pretty lucky. I make the Canadian median wage(54k/yr) with no post-secondary and almost 6 years of disability in 18 years of working. I’m doing fine but it’s frustrating to be able to point to multiples of my income that I’ve pushed personally(in a 200 person operation) and still have to fight for a greater than inflation wage increase. I’ve got irons in the fire and plan to be moving on in the next year or so. Need to get a hold of someone that can do patent discovery. permalink fedilink source parent
