Just ask. The worst that can happen is he’ll say no. That’s the worst. He won’t punch you in the face, he won’t say what? a raise!? I’ve never heard of such a ridiculous request! The sad fact is he probably knows he’s been living on borrowed time and that you are worth a raise. He’s been dreading the conversation as much as you, but be likely knows it’s coming. So practice your speech and go for it!!

I have never ever heard of anyone petting a bumblebee… ever. Whoa. Bees and I do not have a good relationship. They sting me, why on Earth would I ever want to pet one?

I seriously hope it’s a lot easier then I think it will be. Seriously. I might need to go out for a drink afterwards. I’m that worried.

I know right? My blog is my space. But yet, it’s not. And so I can’t bring myself to do it…

Baby is yanking on the laptop so this will be quick – ask for the raise.

And go read about what gives me the heebie jeebies.

Heh.

The Twitter fight thing doesn’t frighten me. The nasty comments on my blog thing? That makes me crazy.

I’d go in and ask for the raise. Of course, I’m the one who never asks about salary even when interviewing for a job. It’s not that I don’t care, it’s that I’m afraid they’re going to ask me what I think I’m worth, and I have no idea how to answer that.

In my experience, I get all worried about all the things I expect they (employers) will say to argue against me. But, when you’re right – you’re right. Usually, I’ve walked out of a meeting after asking for a raise or a promotion and thought, “Well, that was a lot easier than I thought it’d be…”

Good luck, girl! Go for it!

I’m not scared to sky dive or bungee jump, I just think it’s stupid.
