Wow please do not do this. This is a great way to destroy your relationship with your boss and cement it in the exploiter/exploited dynamic. Edit: because it implies from the start that you are being taken advantage of. You are not some proletariat worker being taken advantage of. Ask for a salary you feel is fair, and work for it. If you feel like you've improved your skills to the point where you are now providing more value to the company, ask that that is reflected in your paycheck. Don't do this on some arbitrary day, or worse in the middle of a crisis, do it during a down time after you have just successfully demonstrated your newly increased value on a project (maybe by recovering from that crisis calmly and effectively, maybe by stepping up and taking more responsibility on a project etc.)
