Sounds a pile of pants doesnt it
My grandad told me this years ago I have tried it twice and my misses asked for a extra week off school and it worked all 3 times.
My grandad explained...............
Dont ask on a -
Friday - no one cares about work they just looking forward to the weekend.
Monday - everyone is too stressed and grumpy cos start of the week
Tuesday - all mondays problems are rolling over so they still stressed
Wednesday - things are just about going okay dont rock the boat
THURSDAY- Things are running smoothly at last, the weekends nearly here your boss is happy and accessible go for it.
Ok this is'nt cast iron guaranteed to work but ANYTHING that can help.....will help!
Is it worth asking for a payrise? Or is it likely to be a set rate? I've been told by some it's a set rate, others that you'll get it reviewed now & again and it goes up
How can i go about asking for a pay rise?
Thanks in advance
