hi people,
I 've been in my new job for less than 4 months. I did good job during this time, and my manager evaluated me as very good before he left .higher manager will review this evaluation soon. I know the big manager will give me a raise if I ask for it, but what is the best way or the right phrase to ask for a raise ? I appreciate any opinion it might help me.

It seems like a few years ago, noone cared. They have always been around. Yet out of the blue, Immigration became a hot issue. What happened.

I have a feeling it is because of 9/11, but Mexicans have nothing to do with 9/11 so someone explain.

For example, I got this one from a lib just a few minutes ago:

From: sSuper critic

Subject: Dobson

Message: Is it hard to exist in this society as a complete imbecile or do generous, sympathetic people throw a lot of coins in your tin cup? Were you born this way or did you have a serious accident

Don't you just love it when they try to be cute and adorable like this? Wanna bet he's a product of a broken home?

Because if I make it through everything as far as testing goes, I will need to have at least a couple of weeks, to see my father and elderly grandparents (god forbid) something was to happen to them? And if I cant get in owing money to the court system, why is the recruiter wasting his and my time by proceeding with the tedious process and paperwork, he is well aware of my situation, and seems to not be worried about it. What gives? lol. Some say yeah, some say nay, does anyone SERIOUSLY know the answer to these questions? Im an all or nothing type, and before investing all my hope, talent, and ambition into this, I need to know if its even worth it, or if I should just walk away to save countless hours of pointless preparation. If your a recruiter, or an army soldier who HONESTLY knows the answers, I would be truly, sincerely obliged.

If I make an offer on a home that is contingent upon the sale of my home, and the seller can boot me if they get another offer that isn't contingent, then how am I any better off than just waiting until mine sells and making a non-contingent offer? Is it because there is a small chance that the seller will actually have a heart and stay loyal to me or stop accepting offers? Thanks.

I admit I like Bush on the fact he is able to keep his speeches simple and is easy to see if he is lying or not. He lacks the skill Clinton had to cover stuff up.

However what GOOD things has he done for this nation? Please leave the terrorism and fight for freedom out. Need to hear something new.
