Irish Raise

A job promotion that comes with more responsibility, but no pay increase. Often times the promotion comes with a title change, but not always.
Steve: "Congratulations on becoming the Chief of Wage Cage Quality Control, you must be able to afford organic produce now with that pay raise!"

Dave: "I wish! Unfortunately, it was an Irish raise"

alternative response:
