I assume you’re paid pretty well then? Most people aren’t salaried and the few that are salaried but still living closer to poverty than you may have a different experience. Jeopardizing your job by asking for more is a real fear people have.
definitely above median, but not any kind of fuck you money
The original image explicitly says salary, but you can negotiate for an hourly wage increase as well. People shouldn’t be scared of it, the worst that can happen is they say no.
“Memes” like OP’s create that fear, rather than empowering workers.
to repeat the question, have you ever seen anyone lose their mind because another person said they would negotiate their pay?

Not in the context of the meme, no. In the context of fear then yes.
