I work at NCSU in Raleigh. I was a bookkeeper for 8 years and have been doing HR work, too, for 20 months. The HR mgr retired in July 2014.

There were no plans to fill that position. Now, I have been doing the job of two people for 20 months. I was given a 7% temp increase in Aug 2014 which was to be followed by another 7% four months later. The Dean denied the supplement, not in any way tied to my performance, but to dept budget at that time. Three faculty also were denied supps at same time. Four months later, our budget stabilized and we had $52K left. It was too late to spend it due to fiscal year ending a month after. I am having recurring nightmares (can't escape a tall building--trapped) and headaches. Now, going to physician tomorrow because of abdomen pain. Could be stress-induced. (Have no gall bladder or appendix.) I am 63 years old. Have been on several NCSU interviews since Aug 2014, no job offers yet. My dept head promised me a promotion to another classification before HR person retired; but, dept head left and moved to TX July 2015. HR retracted the 7% supplement in Dec 2015. I've lost $400 since Christmas.
