They want to make you a Salary position?

A year and a half of my wife in BC Gov and she's already advanced 3 grid levels, she's probably going to go one more level up by the end of this year (she's already making 20% more than she made after 15 years in her old job)
Her uppers are already saying "You'll be Band (management) level in no time".

She's like "but I like my flex days, and signing off at 4:30", which she would lose, for all of like a maximum of 15% pay increase. No thanks.
