Here Goes the hypothetical conversation:
Boss: Relocation expenses are covered, but no salary hike is offered. You can't compare yourself with others. Don't do that.
Employee: That's surprising, considering even those predicted to leave soon receive a salary bump. What about dedicated employees who relocate? And why can't we compare ourselves with others? Isn't comparing products and services to improve them a standard practice?
Boss: (pauses) That's a good point. Maybe one should rethink our priorities and recognize the value of commitment and flexibility. And I see what you mean about comparisons.

Employee: Exactly! It's essential to acknowledge and reward employees who demonstrate dedication and adaptability.
Additionally, basic expenses for customer visits, such as travel and meals, should also be considered. These expenses can add up quickly and impact our overall compensation. And shouldn't we be allowed to compare and improve ourselves like products?
By the way, where were you when I earned lower ratings for years compared to even my juniors? Was my hard work and dedication not valued then?
Boss: (dismissively) You already earn too much. Your job shouldn't suffer; just go ahead and do it. (implies employee should cover expenses personally)
Employee: (compromised) That's not a solution. It's unfair to expect me to absorb additional expenses without compensation or recognition. And it seems like I'm the only one who thinks this is a problem. Others are treated specially, unlike me, on both these topics. I'm asked to shut up and accept it.
Boss: (condescendingly) You think too much. Others don't have a problem with it.
Employee: (compromised) That's because others aren't treated unfairly like me! I'm being singled out and expected to accept it quietly.
