Last payday our checks were mixed up he had mine and I had his. I opened it up without looking at the name as I usually do and then I thought I got a huge raise or something only to find out that he had my check and had opened it as well. We do almost the exact same thing we are system administrators. the only difference is that he is the email administrator and I am the database administrator (we wear many hats). Other than that we take care of everything together. He thinks I should hit them up for a raise to at least match his salary. I feel the same way. How should I approach this? Is asking for a 20K increase a little extreme? Any advice on this situation will be greatly appreciated.
