Asked for a raise. Boss just…accepted and would work to get it for me?
Tl;dr got all pumped and asked for a raise with full list of reasons why, asked, store manager said ok, I'll work on it.
Full context
31 year old full grown mortgage havin grocery worker
Duo owned grocery store one owner likes me well enough one is indifferent bordering on dislike, but more like not worth noticing
Got a raise 5 months ago but clear evidence that everyone got it. Only raise in 2.5 years. Only $.50. rumor grocery are not .50 above me, coworker is at least $2 above me,
I request a $1.5 raise.
Past several months been putting forth great effort to show efficiency and effort at work
I am one of four people who work produce, everything is organic so there is a illusory sense of specialty to the job. It's really a joke of a job, I get so bored I work on other departments because it passes the time.
Did I just score a dollar raise? Did I score a 1.5 raise? Will she fire me and hire an 18 year old who doesn't know the difference between a Japanese, garnet, jewel, purple, or white sweet potato?
