I find myself at a crossroad, having contacted HR and not getting to far in regards to higher compensation. All the while having competitors head hunters actually leaving cards on my service van(one guy was actually standing at my van one day). Its a hard pill to swallow when another company is offering more money than the company I am at now(considering they really don't know me from a hole in the ground). What really puts a burr in my saddle is hearing about other people with less experience or customer base earning more than other techs. I think there should be a more standardized way of assessing peoples technical ability and character, when making offers/conditions of employment.
