To be honest I think its a fair comment. I'm struggling to read your messages and understand what you're trying to say. May be not phrased very well, but correct message trying to be sent.

Englash is not my first language. it's not easy I am trying. But its not fair to critque when i can speak nearly 6 different ones. i appreciate dat you may have mastered 1 but its better to have a multi tool then a screwdrive.rAndy_L said:I though school holidays finished last week?-1 -
Last posts from numb1 appeared about 12 years ago and their English was fine. Is it possible someone has hijacked this sign on.7

Ah, I think you may have given us an idea of why your colleague may be paid more !numb1 said:

Employment rewards aren't always just about experience - attitude can count too.
But you could try doing what I did earlier this year. I sat down with one of our directors and asked if there was anything I needed to do, to get a bit more salary. I told him I was disappointed by annual rise (4%), and I'd hoped for more. I explained why I thought I was worth more, and in my case I was able to point out how much revenue I generated for the company - I know not everyone can do that.
2 days later, I was told my rise had been doubled.
I STRONGLY advise that you don't say "X gets paid more than me, I want more money" !!
I try not to get too stressed out on the forum. I won't argue, i'll just leave a thread if you don't like what I say.

When numb1 was also reported for spamming....https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/comment/49080789#Comment_49080789chrisbur said:Last posts from numb1 appeared about 12 years ago and their English was fine.

so the takeaway is numb1's colleague gets paid 1k more per annum because he's a more legible spammer1

Don't value yourself by other people being worse off/getting less.
But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.

Spam or no spam, how is it that people know what salary their colleagues are receiving?
I never knew what my colleagues were getting and never told them my salary when I was employed. It was just never done.
If I wasn't happy, I left.Please note - taken from the Forum Rules and amended for my own personal use (with thanks) : It is up to you to investigate, check, double-check and check yet again before you make any decisions or take any action based on any information you glean from any of my posts.
