It is where everyone's confusion comes in to play. There is something to be said for someone who doesn't want to work that extra hour when you're taking home 3-5% less for your time, but a basic raise should be accepted 99% of the time.

Outside of a few unique situations, capital gains for instance, the vast majority of people are better off with a raise.
