if you got squished by a very large truck tomorrow, big blue would figure out how to carry on without you.

I assume you have provided for your family, because big blue will not be paying for Mrs. Data's grocery bill going forward. they don't care about people (no company does), they only care about money.

i previously quit and walked out in one day. got tired of the boss stealing my retirement money. pending jobs? tough boss, you showed no loyalty to me, neither will i show it to you. bye. out the door by noon with my stuff.

so....

you could talk to the boss monday first thing: "boss, i'm not getting paid for my talents. i want a raise/bonus or i'm gone by friday. let me know."

and be prepared to send in your name tag.

but you know all this.

Correct. I would never make the call out without the backup plan. That conversation is happening, and the competitor is frothing at the bit to land me. The rest of 2018 could be fun to watch.
