Don't see it as a threat, see it as me finding out what the market value is of my labor and then informing you about it. I'm going to do due diligence before asking for a raise, if our company was launching a product and I found out what the market value of it was you would presumably be thrilled. I work as hard for myself as I do for the company, just like I know that the company works as hard for our customers as we do for our shareholders.
