Depends, are you manager of your local McDonalds or what?
Seriously though, I'm living in the UK, my part time job pays more than yours. |

you probably need to be looking outside for better positions, doubt that the employer will pay what you need. |

If the owner is only paying you $10 in California for a MGR position you should just move on not even bother with that job. I say this because they may bump you up just enough to squeak by and in another year you will be the same exact place you are now. |

Before you do any quitting, demanding and asking, you should research a little bit and see if you would be able to get a similar position in the same industry at a higher rate. $10 may be low, but may not be too far out of line in some small retail businesses. If you can easily make more, but want to stay where you are, that's what you should tell your boss. |

I find it hard to believe a "managerial" position in CA pays that much. You can get $15+ an hour for managing a freakin' fast food restaurant in Oklahoma, and a house will only cost you $75K instead of $500K.

The term managerial position is subjective.
Pay is generally based on responsibility. For example a manager responsible for the development of a multi-million dollar contract vs a manager of a auto parts store.
I would have to say that $10 an hour seems low. They guys would put tires on at Discount tire make $11.
I would start by getting a private meeting, telling them how you have made it better and how you make things run smooth, then say that you feel your compensation should reflect the work you do and would like to make 16$ an hour. They will come back with a lower number then you settle on something. That is if they agree you’re an asset.
If they don’t they tell you no and you stay at $10 or they replace you.
In the UK everything costs more too. FYI a McDonalds manager is 45-60K a year. |

Dear Friend. If you have been working for the same company for like more than two years now and that you seem to be okay with your boss then there is no reason for you to hold back on your thoughts. Ask nicely and try not to be overbearing like you really deserve a raise. Say " With all due respect Mr./Ms.(name of Boss), I have been serving this company for ___ years now. May I know if my service has done a quite remarkable contribution to the company's growth? " If your boss would give you a good rating on your job performance then that will be the time to ask if it is alright to inspire you more with a raise that is reasonable enough.
That way, everybody is happy.

NO THIS IS THE BEST METHOD
I would document in writing all the things that you have accomplished. Don't talk about day to day things you do, talk about the long-term accomplishments. Then call for a meeting with your higher-ups.
Talk about in your own words, how as a manager you have enhanced the organization. (Focus on things like customer needs, whatever it may be.)
And then explain that you've been working X amount of time and that you would like to continue to grow with the company, but expect a more competitive salary in return. |

I have lived in California for ten years and then returned to Europe, all systems, despite allegations are rapidly falling in to line with the green back nation. That is not to say I have ever been given to red flags, Rather though the global ECONOMNY is less transparent and becoming " the vanishing " Euro Buck's and WST will for the mo ! baldh de bladh. They know even bad deals void of other options, choice or not are the railroading norm. Accept, fight, or paper cup it. |

how about inviting your boss over to you place .... he may get the hint from what he gets to see ;)
seriously, if you think you deserve a better pay than wht u get now ... then be frank and let your boss know about it.
If he agrees, you got it ! ... else its just another day .... :) |

What company do you work for? A job with so many responsabilities should be paying you at least $ 18.00 per hr, specially in CA were cost of living is high.
YOu need to make an appointment with your general manager and explain to them your situation and that you do need a salary increase based on all the responsability you have. I would ask for $ 22 per hr and then negotiate.. It also depends where you work.. some companies are notoriious for not paying that much and they won't.
Good luck! |

Simple. Find a higher paying job. When you get the job offer take that to your boss with your new salary demands which match or are higher than the new job. If he says no then you can tell him/her you quit and go to your new job. |
