I think it is only right to ask for an increase if you haven't had an increase in a long time and you're a good employee who works hard. Also, if you have more responsibilities than you used to your boss may give you more. However, with this economy, employers are a lot less likely to pay more money. In fact, last February, my Dad's salary DECREASED.

Oh, I see... Companies are really saving nowadays because of the global economic crisis. I hope after the crisis, you father will get an increase. Thanks for your response!

This economy is definately not good. I will be graduating from school in December and I hope I will be able to find a job then.
