<prompt> Human: Im a receptionist at a Substance Abuse Treatment Facility outpatient only and I make 13 an hour. Ill have been with the company for a year at about this time next month. My education level is high school diploma some college no degree. According to one site I make the state average for my position. How should I go about asking for a raise, and how much do you think is feasible? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  <response>: I would start with the job description for your job. Make some side by side comparisons with the tasks in the job description and how well you have done with examples.Then go into things you have done that go above and beyond and focus on your ability to not only involve others, but get resources from them.. almost bordering on leadership andor management skills and self assigned responsibilities. Make sure they know that without you doing these tasks, on your own volition, life at the work place would be much harder
