I think it's going to be a hard winter for a lot of people this year Mike. It's not just you. You've got a lot of company. The cost of living is probably going to increase again. This inflation thing isn't done running it's course yet.
If the cost of living goes up faster than your yearly pay raises .... it leaves you with less to live on. That's the way it usually works out for most working people. They stay on a job for 20 years and end up working for less that what they started out at. There aren't many jobs that offer what's called " Real Wage Growth ".
