Hey everyone.

Im asking this question on a new account my friend will be using, im already a member and quite frequent on the site, due to the nature of the question i can't let the boss see who i am.

So scandalous!!!!

My question is, am i right to want more money despite the recession.

Summary below

I work on A/C, Refrigeration not supermarket, no ammonia work, primarily service with very few recalls on jobs i have attended. Im young 20-25, and i have been in the industry a few years now.

CITB pipework and brazing, CITB electrics and refrig electrics and my F gas ticket (J11). And other manufacturers courses.

Due to be taking an apprentice onboard in the next 6 months, i get paid salary at 40 hrs p/week, much more hours in the summer and less in winter but still 40 hrs.

Pay is roughly 16500 p/yr

Opinions?

Cheers All
