Retail Store Manager - (City withheld for privacy), Manitoba, Canada
I am not really sure how to negotiate a higher rate of pay, hence the reason I stumbled upon this site.

I can talk the talk but have a hard time walking the walk to my superior. I have printed the reports off the website. Although I may not bring them to the negotiating table I will use the figures as a way to discuss the average scale, and how I feel I am above average. So start by asking your superior, "Do you see me as above average" and explain why you are! Then use the numbers to back it up and say "If I am above average than I deserve above average salary?" We all know in retail your not going to make millions! Its about passion and drive that makes what we do worth it! If you are that ABOVE AVERAGE manager then you should be recognized for it!
