When hired from a temp agency to a company I was told I would be making X-amount of money and once the company traded hands in 3 months I would be making X-amount more. It's been close to a year and I've been inquiring not only about the original increase, but the second increase. This agreement was made by Human Resources in front of other management. Is this verbal contract enforcable and if so, back to the original date of promissory rates?
