Would you be fine doing those jobs if you were paid more? Be a model employee until you meet with the person that can change your salary. Find the number that would make you happy and ask for it. If they don’t meet that number, then slack off.
Don’t be emotional. You are a tool like a wrench to them. If they can buy a wrench cheaper, they will. If you are a great wrench that they will profit from purchasing, they will pay extra.


That makes no sense? Why not play small bands that would be happy to have their music on the air for free?
