Hi guys, it's been a while since I've posted anything on here but I'm currently finding myself in a very weird spot with work. First off, I live in Amman, Jordan. To many Europeans and Americans, this might be considered a third world country of sorts and I do agree with that. Opportunities here in different fields are very limited and I currently work in a very niche kind of business that being a Microsoft Dynamics 365 (CRM) Specialist. I've been considering finding a new job since the beginning of the year but unfortunately I have not been able to find proper opportunities.

Before anyone that knows what I do asks about what I'm getting paid for doing it, I'll give you some insight. I work 8 to 9 hours a day, 5 days a week and I get paid 606 USD without health benefits or any other benefits really. The main reason I've been considering finding something new is the fact that my boss completely disregarded me when I asked for a raise at the beginning of the year despite the fact that I helped the company secure a contract for 150k+ USD. Obviously, I understand that they have commitments they have to tend to but I do feel like I'm currently undervalued.

If you were in my shoes, what do you think you'd do?

Sorry for the long rant but I needed to vent somewhere.

P.S; I'm 27 years old if that's relevant.

Ask yourself the following questions:
1. How much is someone doing the same thing earning in Amman?
2. If you decide to resign today, what alternative jobs could you get and what would be your salary then?
3. If you decide to resign, how long will it take your boss to find a replacement?
4. How much money do you have in savings, as in how long can you survive without a job?

You should make a decision based on the answers to these questions.

If it were me, Id talk to the boss and ask for a raise again. Good luck mate.

What choices do you have? Sometimes you have no choice but to eat a shit sandwich.

Honestly my my work is worse than yours, I get about 28$ weekly. I really understand you of not being valued, they tend to raise wages on those who are closed to them. While I work in every offices to fix their each problem and I had another task in the office. I want to earn online so that I can quit my job, but I have several issues to solve first. Maybe you should try to search a better job to or be a freelance but don't quit yet if you're not sure for your next move.

Secure enough cash and move to a location with better opportunities.

Physical labor jobs usually pay well and they're everywhere.

Expand on your current experience find another like it where you live

The job market is not all about how had you work and is about how hard it is to replace you with someone else . If you can explain your boss of how hard it is to replace yourself then you can ask for a raise and if you don't want to stay better look for someother place and quit the current job after you have an offer in your hand.

Sorry to hear that mate, it sucks being stuck in a job like that especially in times like these with no real options available.
I hope you'll find something better and leave this job, it's always good to rant and let things out!
If you got education in other fields I'd recommend you'd try your luck there, if you don't then I can recommend you start learning something you find interesting and start gaining experience in that field and switch jobs.
Anyways good luck!!
