When I was told I was getting a promotion at the end of last year, my manager said it in such a way that he seemed surprised, even as the one giving it to me.

"We're changing your title to . I guess that's, technically, a promotion. Your salary will now be $. Congratulations."

It definitely didn't leave me with the feeling that my manager was happy with me or my work.
