[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 301134, member: 9789"] I don't think it has anything to do with how "ignorant" you are about the pay scale. There are different pay grades and positions and based on your skill set, education level, experience and any prior leadership positions as well as the way you interview, etc. is how your salary will be determined. If you already have a distrust of your management team in the district, is a management position really for you? I base that on this "ignorance" issue you brought up. The biggest mistake I have seen supervisors and managers make is trying to compare salaries. One person (if not both) always leaves the discussion with the very bad taste in their mouth. My best recommendation is to keep your salary discussion to you and your boss. Once you become a supervisor..... There is no harm in asking what the salary range is as well as the midpoint and how your boss determined your salary. There is no harm in making a case why you should get more (be careful!) but don't tell others what you make. If they have questions on salary... point them to HR! I have seen supvs take this approach: I make this much ___ how much do you make? Don't succumb to that approach. AND if it is an amount that is higher than you make..... don't necessarily believe that it is true! Keep a poker face and let it go. [/QUOTE]
