For a year, (since I first thought the economy might really plummet) I took on a ton of extra responsibility at work (hell I created it when it wasn't there). This year I asked for a huge raise citing numerous things that only I did. The initial response was of course no. I said I understand that you said no, but I feel like that is unacceptable. Long story short, I got the raise and even more job security. Don't let fear stop you! I understand people’s thinking on not asking for a raise.
