I have worked at this place for 2 years and have never been offered a raise and I have not asked for a raise. I know I should and I think I’m going to. The place I work at pays 18.45 and hour for carpentry. I enjoy carpentry but most places in my area seem to be paying $20 an hour. I’ve been training a guy how to build doorways who has been there longer than me and gets paid more than me. I am one of the best workers they have and I get paid the same as someone who doesn’t do anything all day. I feel like they don’t value me and I might go put a application in somewhere else. My buddy quit and before he left he was offered $20 to stay and has been there a year less than me. If you were in my shoes what would you do? If I ask for a raise I don’t think I would want to take less than 20 since it seems the bar is set at that point.
