What can I say, you... you're good you!

If they wanted to be paying you what you're worth, they would already be doing so. Leaving is not really going to be too damaging considering the economy as it is. For everyone complaining they don't earn enough and threatening to leave, there's another 50 people knocking at the door who would just be grateful to have a job right now. The power is with employers at the moment.
That being said, I was in the same situation as you last year, and I gave my company till the end of last year to fix it, and they chose to let me go. I got a new job with a 35% rise on what I was on. My old job is still advertised today, three months later, and this week the closing date for applications got extended again. Guess I wasn't as replaceable as they told me I was when I walked out the door
I'm currently a student who makes nothing, and my debt grows daily. That doesn't stop me from buying new computers though. I'll let future me deal with the repercussions.
Am I replaceable? Probably. But they would not have an easy time trying.
Good luck, I hope it works out for youI've been told I will most likely get what I'm asking for by the person I directly report to.
Not to brag, but for the second year in a row, I've been called the best at what I do in the company. And I would never threaten to leave, there's no point. I would just show up one day with my resignation letter and move on.

Didn't work out too great...

being told what you're getting is a little different to getting it. I never threatened either. I told them I wanted progression by year end, no ultimatum. I didn't get it so handed in my notice. With over 10 years experience at the company I was one of the most experienced and better analysts but in times like this they were willing to risk replacing me easilly. Didn't work out too great...
My suggestion: tell everyone where where you've hidden the office supplies. They'll find out sooner or later anyway.
For you or for the company?
That part's a little ambiguous.
This is how to be responsible right here.
I imagine many people in a variety of income brackets think the same.
I valet park at Hooters. I usually bring in $40-50 on a good night. More if there's a NASCAR race on, or the porn convention is in town. I cleared $20K last year. It's not a lot of money, but it keeps the wife beaters clean and the mullet looking good.
Wow! Things must be bad if you are making that little. I was on twice that over 10 years ago.Ok, here's a real number: IT system engineer in banking in a world capital, $160K+
