How do I get rid of this feeling that I'm gonna get fucked over.

>Be me
>Working in a factory for years
>manager knows I'm autistic and treats me like shit for it
>Raises are few and far between and told I was too stupid to get a promotion
>Try to job hunt while keeping things secret, nobody will hire me because I'm trying to not lose this job by calling in every time I have an interview. I am the only employee that doesn't get PTO, and I get points if I call in sick.
>Manager gets promoted
>They hire in a guy
>I have to train him to do set ups and paperwork, because again...they think I'm too stupid.
>He looks into my personnel record
>Sees that I'm the lowest paid person in the shop despite years of experience and training
>Even new hires make whole dollars more than me
>He says that he wants to get me a massive raise to bring me into parity with my co-workers, basically 10 grand more per year
>Management fights him on it, basically because management thinks I'm retarded.

I dunno why he is trying to bat for me, never had that happen before. How do I know he's not going to hold this over my head if successful?

You don't have any real reason to think he would hold it over your head. He's the new guy, he saw the paperwork, on paper you should make a lot more, what he is doing makes sense without any ulterior motive
>>
>>34649847
You have Stockholm syndrome and are a people pleaser, you're conditioned to avoid conflict and thus you are trying to sabotage a realistic chance for standing up for yourself. Let him do it, he's a superior and wants to help you- these things won't happen often for people like you.
>>
>I dunno why he is trying to bat for me
Because its horrible for him to treat some random wagie badly because his bosses are dicks.

>>34649910
Basically this. Back him up as a nice person. He's the new manager there so you can actually offer him something by being loyal from the start. That's way more useful to him than a smarter employee as long as you do what you already do.
>>
>>34649917
Sounds like he won't last long. Upper Management wants managers to crack the whip.
>>
>>34649910
It would be the first time someone jumped in to help me on anything.
>>
>I dunno why he is trying to bat for me
Because he doesn't know you yet, he'll soon come to find out why things are the way they are.
>>
>>34650437
If he gets fired. You should quit.
They're never going to give you a higher wage and you'll be better off looking elsewhere
>>
>>34649847
Your retarded. Take the help. He wants to help you. Not everyone is evil anon.
>>
>>34650512
What does he have to gain from this?
>>
>>34650593
he still thinks you being treated like this is unfair, he's about to find out exactly why you're treated like this
he's gaining feeling like a good guy that's doing the right thing from it until he realizes it's the wring thing
>>
>>34650593
Then again, you are a stupid autistic freak. Autists molest children and torture animals, so it would be better if you continue being expoited.
>>
>>34650473
I'd be more likely to kill myself than anything. I quit once and had to go back because I couldn't even get a fucking minimum wage job. Someone once suggested that when I applied to places, they called for a reference, my employer told them I wasn't a good employee.
>>
>>34650624
I'll try to walk you through it.
Get whatever government program for autism you have in your country to help you. There's manual jobs that require next to no skill or thinking, especially that your country has factories. The worst thing that can happen from you reaching out is finding someone with sympathy for your situation.

>they called for a reference
You're supposed to leave your friends' numbers as your supervisors. When the people from your new job call they say something along the lines of "anon? He's an average worker. I'm too busy to talk more"
