Anyway, this is your rant, not mine 
I would bite your lip and ask nicely for a raise - a decent one, and have ready a long list of points to bring up if your request is rejected. That should hopefully initiate a cordial discussion about what you're worth - and if you don't get proper recognition then maybe start looking for work elsewhere. As long as there's no animosity you'll still get a good reference from them or else they can stuff up your jobsearch.
Anyway, I've seen your picture and I reckon you're worth a big pay raise  (That's my "typical male" superficial comment for the week) |
Yep if you're good and loyal you will get screwed. People who move from job to job are the ones who make money.
This is bull****. But you can't tell your boss you know and you can't threaten him that you would leave under such circumstances because it isn't professional. I would go with Strand's advice. Also, don't wear yourself out so much, ask someone else to stay, etc. Obviously he doesn't appreciate all that you do.
