I've been in a new job about 9 months. It's a very physical demanding job as it involves working with highly flammable gases, ovens that sit at 750°C, torches, welding quartz products that are expensive and easily breakable. The heat is that intense that I can ring my top after an hour of work and its like a wet cloth (Sorry it sounds gross but it's the truth). The products I'm working on now are ones that have taken others nearly 2 years to learn while I have learned it in a couple of months.
My manager called me in to tell me that I'm going to be trained to work on these new products that are being brought in which will bring the company 10x more money per piece then what we've been working on at the moment but the thing is they are incredibly difficult to fix as some many things can go wrong and ruin the piece.
I'm on the same pay as some people who stock shelfs in your local shops.
What would be the best way about trying to get my hourly rate pay up ?
