<prompt> Human: Is this worth fighting for? I think I should get at least what they are offering new hires if not more. I think its ridiculous that people who are being hired into the same exact position as me are being offered more money. How do I bring this up without risking my job? Apparently the higher wages are due to it being a hard position to fill. That should at least offer some security for me.Ignore or fight and is this common?  <response>: The thing is, most bosses just assume you are happy if you dont ask for anything. So, have you asked about a raise before? Asking for a raise during annual performance review is fairly common that unless you have really shitty bosses, you dont have to worry about getting fired.If you do have shitty bosses, thats a different story.
