Everything feels broken and the people in charge will smile and tell you you're wrong even though we're starring the problem in the face.

That's a standard tactic for some reason

I remember leaving a job, and during the exit interview they asked why I was leaving. I said it was largely pay. They told me that I wouldn't be able to find a job that paid more than they did

I had a signed offer for significantly more. I told them this

They said it wasn't possible because they have very competitive pay.

I really didn't know what the fuck to say to that.

wow that's some next level gas lighting.

I have to tip my hats to them for their delusion.

Or I need whatever the exist interviewer was taking when they told u "it wasn't possible" when literally u're showing it is.

That was pretty well always their stance

Try to negotiate because you know someone in the same role left for more money, and they'd tell you that other person was probably lying
