How should i word/ask for a raise. i need to type out a letter of why i want/need a raise and hand it into my manager. i'm a receptionist at a car dealership so im not at the top of the money chain but im unsure of how to word it properly. I am part time but i work for a few hrs every day and come in if needed on times im not scheduled. we have never had any kind of conflicts with me or anything, im responsible, put the customers first, make sure people get their messages, and do paperwork when needed. i just need a nice professional way to say...i do my **** and would like more money please!!!
please be nice and professional!! i'd appreciate it!

Getting a pay raise means you MAY have to perform slightly differently. Most people won't give you something for nothing and an employer won't necessarily have 'pity' on you. If your pay raise doesn't come through, there are other ways you can increase the income you make.

You usually have merit raises spelled out in a HR handbook. Some companies don't give any consideration for a raise unless you've been employed for atleast 6 months. I would first ask your supervisor about the company policy. I would also make a list of the things that you've contributed while you've been there. You don't have to write a letter, just talk to management about it and they will let you know. If you can't seem to get a riase there after a year, I'd change jobs.

Go higher in the money chain by moving to sales. If you perform in sales, you'd definitely be financially rewarded and you'd be considered important.
