[originaltext] Mr. Hooper, I have been with this company now for seven years

Mr. Hooper, I have been with this company now for seven years. And I’ve always been very loyal to the company. And I feel that I’ve worked quite hard here. And I’ve never been promoted. It’s getting to the point now in my life where, you know, I need more money. I would like to buy a car. I’d like to start a family, and maybe buy a house, all of which is impossible with the current salary you are paying me.
    You told me to earn a raise I need to take more initiative and show more enthusiasm for the job. Maybe I could show a little more enthusiasm. I still think that I work hard here. But a company does have at least an obligation to pay its employees enough to live on. And the salary I’m getting here isn’t enough. I can barely cover my expenses. And it’s absolutely necessary for me to have a raise or I cannot justify keeping this job any more.
