    The two times I've done it I've started by looking around for other jobs, interviewing and being accepted, then using that as leverage. If they hadn't agreed to a pay rise, I'd have an alternative.

    The only time I haven't asked for a payrise was for the same position where I'd relied on the promise of a pay increase, and was then made redundant, a month before i'd been there a year - ie. No handsome payoff before being booted. Cunts.

    Rule #1 - No matter how twatty it might make you feel, always consider yourself first and guarantee your own position.
