[quote=Anonymous]I have been with my weekend employers for nearly two years.  I have never asked for a raise nor have they offered.  They are a very wealthy and high-profile couple and everything goes through a business manager (who cuts all of the employees checks - there are four nannies, two housekeepers, cook and gardener).  I will need to put my request in writing to both my MB as well as a CC to their business manager.  I plan to ask for my raise a few weeks prior to my 2 year anniversary (mid-July).

I only plan to be with this job until the end of the year.  Working weekends as well as a full-time weekday nanny job is getting to be too much for me.  My weekend employers have no idea that I will be leaving.

Here are is my question - is it worth even asking when I know I will be leaving in five months?  Does asking for a raise have some promise of another year's commitment?

I work two days for them - 12 hours each day.  So it would be $48 more (gross) each week if I am given the $2 an hour raise I am requesting.
