Awful Advice: Asking for a Raise
Dear AA,
How do I ask for a raise?
--Ben
Make sure you belittle everone else in the office. Don't be nice to anyone. Always take credit for all the projects/sales/ideas that turn out good and pass the buck on any failures. Never admit mistakes. Also, always take the first offer if you are offered a raise. The first is usually the best. Never think about your duties and whether you can accomplish them because companies hate thinkers. Also, take the extra money you earn and invest it in the stock market for a short term gain. Notice I didn't advise you to ask for a raise. That's because the company always has your best interests at heart-- they will know the appropriate time for you to ask them. So, only ask when explicitly tell you it okay to ask for a raise.
