Which brings me to my present saltiness... Watching dbag morons get promotions/raises/etc because I'm good at my job, while I don't see shit. Then being told for two years that the higher-ups have "plans for me" and "find me to be a very valuable part of this team", yet I'm still getting fucked because I refuse to suck their dicks everytime they walk into the room. It really doesn't matter how smart you are or how much hustle you put in sometimes. It only matters how much wrinkled dong your willing to choke down. Fucking pricks.

If you had a better attitude and softer hands, the wrinkled dongs would not be so wrinkled.....Though
I suspect you aren't much more likely to choke down smooth dongs either... 8)

Careful that your refusal to "suck dick" isn't also a refusal to cooperate in a team. I know nothing about you so don't take this as an accusation but I hear a lot of this kind of talk at the water cooler and the ones who take this tone are the ones who no one wants to work with because they're abrasive assholes. They're fantastic at their jobs but no one wants to work with a prick.
That being said, it's incredibly irritating to only get "atta boy's" when a raise is deserved. If you're truly that good at your job and you can prove it, maybe it's time to find another employer who will recognize you monetarily. ;D

That last part is funny - my dad worked for the same company from before I was born until just a couple of months ago, and I have always looked to that as the way Things Should Be. But I can't help but notice that the people I know who jump ship every couple of years seem to make pretty good dough.

I hear ya, and there are a couple guys in my shop like that. Not my deal though. I get along with everyone (customers included) and have never had an issue with working alongside my co-workers. My issue is that my boss is an egotistical schmuck. He doesn't like it when you don't candy coat everything and tell him how great he is. I am unable to do that.
True that. Working on highend vintage european junk for people that have never been told no in there lives is a joy. i usually fine untill im talked down to by a boss that knows nothing about the cars he is getting paid for me to fix. , there is a rapid change in my tone at that point. My breaking point was a sight to be seen. telling a second generation rich guy that he needed me, a hell of alot more than i needed him. the best part is when i quite and took more than half his business. So i quess my bluff was correct. my ex boss learned you cant buy your way outta a bad reputation in a small town, and closed the shop.i win

Try telling the guy who just wrote a $292k check for his new SLS AMG Black series that the rattling noise he hears from the motor is "normal" according to Mercedes. THat was a fun day.
Oh, this was less than 200 miles on the car.
I was told the cheapest part of a Mercedes is the owner.

I jokinly told a guy he needed to get his amg s55 outta my shop when the self leveling took a shit over night and set the frame flat on the ground. fixing suspension on a car you cant jack up or move is rad. the price of the car really means nothing to me, nobody made the guy buy it.

Split personality, I fake being smart
I was delivering office furniture in London, many, many years ago
Guy in pinstripe suit came up and started ordering things around, we told him we only delivered to door and not set up/assembly
when he started telling us how 'important' he was, I politely asked him if he would like to leave by door, wall or window (we were about 20 floors up)
That job didn't last long, I can't stand arrogant assholes, particularly those who look down on anyone with less money

Going to bed at midnight, and getting up at 0330 because the Shetland pony broke out, again. Couldn't fall back to sleep, so, here I am. Coffee is brewing, breaking in a new pipe, just waiting for daylight to give the little bastard a dose of reality. Work 1500-2200 dealing with the dregs of Memphis society, to come home and deal with an absolutely useless self propelled compost bin/lawn mower... I don't fucking think so. One of these times he's going to get out, I'll snap and shoot him...
