I have been in my current position for about one year now. I originally got this job through a friend, who was promoted, thus leaving the position available. Because we are friends, I also know that she received a raise within 4-5 months being on the job and within the year got a promotion.
I guess I feel a little resentful towards my employer because the company has been growing significantly and management has been traveling and tending to outside business, so when there were issues with my client and work environment, I felt neglected. I also know that my client absolutely loves me and does not want me to leave this position and my employer is aware. I know that I have been doing a good job and deserve this raise. Especially since many people around the building have told me that I do a good job, I'm always busy and running around while "that girl" that was in the position previous to me never did any work. *hmph*
So how do I approach this with my employer? I probably shouldn't mention that I know the previous girl in my position received a raise almost immediately, and I know that I've done just as good, if not better job than she? I probably also shouldn't mention that I have felt a little neglected and have had little guidance along the way?
Any tips?
