What does your current base+on-call pay have to do with anything?

Nothing, to them; but
everything to me. I know that they are "running the numbers" on what my position pays, and I know that the results will be more than what I make now,
but they don't have to know that.
I took the [internet sources] number, rounded up, added on the travel expense,
and the cost of buying a new car for my wife. I took that new number and told the CIO that it would be a "lateral move" for me. In reality it would be, like, a $30k raise.
Then, I'm just going to move out there, anyway. Gas money goes back in my pocket, and commute goes back to normal. That's the plan.
