<prompt> Human: I know tone and attitude dont portray well via text which is what Im concerned about. Unfortunately, my higher-ups are 3 hours away and we only see one another a few times a year. They just stopped by a few weeks ago, so I wont be seeing them again for a while. Ive taken on more responsibilities than originally pitched when I took this job almost two years ago; Im the acting store manager now, just without the title. I havent seen a pay increase at all and I feel that my co-worker and I deserve a lil somethin more for the hard work.I dodid everything from employee training, stockproduct orders, managing custom orders, and a bunch of other duties which werent discussed during the initial interview or part of the job pitch. I dont mind the extra work, but I do mind seeing an increase in work and responsibilities while seeing no extra pay. Any tips on writing up this email? Should I email my immediate supervisor, or the person above him who actually makes the call?Edit: Thanks for the advice everyone. Ill put together a listscript first, schedule a phone conference and make my pitch. I appreciate all the advice!  <response>: I would never request a raise via email. Your best bet would be scheduling a phone conference if you cant do it in person. Tell them what you want, why you have earned it.
