Today, I started training my replacement for my job. My replacement already makes more money per hour than I do. FML

OP here. I'll start by saying I'm leaving tis job voluntarily. I'm moving to a new town, I'll actually be making more at my new job. I have no hard feelings towards my current company. They even offered to pay me more to get me to stay, but sadly they don't have a branch in the town I'm moving too. To be clear this is a manager position I worked up too and they decided to raise the starting pay of my job after they started looking for someone. Apparently they think if the pay is good enough they might get someone as close to how good I am. So I took that As a compliment, I don't plan on screwing the new girl over. I just find it funny they wait until they are losing me to finally listen to me about how my department is under appreciated. I do wish them all the best though, they are making some great strides to being better. Sorry for the long response!

Teach your trainee that nothing in life is free, and demand a fee for your scholarly tutelage ...

Rough. My buddy has been at a job for a year, with experience going in, and makes nearly a whole dollar less per hour than the temps they are hiring. Not to mention dollar raises if those temps get brought on permanent.

Maybe your replacement acquires more skills or a diploma/degree useful for the job.
