@blakebaka Once again, you are filtering my words through some chip on the shoulder lens you have. I didn't say not to advocate for yourself; I didn't say not to pursue opportunities.
I, personally, have changed employers twice in the last 6 years. I always 100% advocate for driving your salary and career forward.
I was trying to communicate to the OP that you don't waste hiring managers' time by applying for jobs you are never going to take. If you are genuinely pursuing opportunities elsewhere, because your employer isn't remunerating you against market value, then absolutely pursue those opportunities.
Lastly, don't be a condescending. Congratulations on your excellent career.
