Offered a raise then ignored

If you weren't stuck with any extra duties I'd let it go. It was just something that was tossed around and didn't come to fruition. If you're in the same position (pay and responsibility wise) prior to them approaching you I wouldn't pursue it any more. 

The question is did you take on those extra duties? If so I would remind the person that that you are not asking for a raise but that you were offered the raise for taking on these extra duties and if that raise offer was rescinded then you are not going to continue with those extra duties.

In September, I was offered a raise to take on extra duties. I was told to give a number. I gave a high number because that's what I figured you do and they can meet you somewhere. In my mind if I get the number I asked for, then great. If not, that's OK. But I figured I'd get met somewhere in that range. Well I asked about the outcome of the raise and my boss said she wasn't able to ask yet for approval because the person in charge is out of town. Basically meetings regarding the raise kept getting pushed back and finally she told me it was not a good idea to ask for a raise at the end of the year. 

#1 I never asked, they offered the possibility 

#2 They offered in September not end of year 

Im afraid to bring this up again because I feel like I'll start to get on their bad side. Plus I feel like right now they want to forget the initial offer ever happened. I'm not sure where to go from here. Do I wait until raises come up again in March or April or do I ask again and call out the things they've said. 

 

Did you take on the extra duties?  Oh I see we're all asking this question.  And yes I agree with the above posters.  If you didn't take on the extra duties I wouldn't worry about it nor would I take on any extra duties in the future.  If you did take on the extra duties I believe they have to pay you retroactively.
