history: A co-worker just got a big raise and he does about only half the work I do. I was surprised a co-worker of mine just got a raise! He doesn't do much work at all... Uh ohhh.  When is it gonna be your turn?! That's what I am wondering! Just a bit miffed about it. I think I do twice the work. Wonder if it would help if I call your boss and tell him to give you a raise?
current: It might be a worth a shot to do that and stand my ground on my next contract renewal time.
next: I will write him a strongly worded letter!
