The way the ecomony is anymore especially in the tech sector, be glad you have a job reguardless of what you make.

I am glad, and I'd be happy to be making what I am if I thought that I wasn't one of the more highly skilled and least paid people here. People answering phones at the help desk are making more money than I am. And they mostly reset passwords and enter problems in a ticketing system. They rarely solve problems. They're a lot like an answering service most of the time as far as I can figure. (I rarely if ever use that ticketing system, but I was sent down there to learn what they do for a week. Pure torture.)
