I don't want to have an awkward conversation or cut myself out of future work, but he's profiting off of my name and reputation.

Should I address it with him?

And if so, what should I say?

Signed, Unpaid Coworker.

Okay, are you ready for the second question?

They write, I work for a successful law firm.

My onboarding documents specifically say that the company doesn't, quote, do raises and prefers to do occasional bonuses.

It also says not to discuss pay with colleagues, which I know is illegal.

Everyone I speak with complains, but only one out of the six people I've spoken to is interested in a collective message to management.

There's 30 total staff.

I work remotely, and I don't think I can organize everyone to my side.

As a reformed job hopper, I'm okay to stay for two years until it's more acceptable to leave.

Should I push back alone?

Signed, ready for a raise.

After the break, how do I tell my coworker, who I see three times a week, that she cannot have a copy of my house key?

I've been working on my team for about a year and a half and am much younger than my coworkers.

They've all worked together for nine plus years while I'm new to the team.

It feels like no matter what I do, the team doesn't consider me to be, well, part of the team.

I was also told by other team members that they had not wanted to hire me, but I had preferred an internal candidate who was working in another position in the organization.
