I decided to go ahead and ask for a slight salary increase and additional vacation time. I figured the worst they would do is say no.

I heard back today and they met me half way on both.

So I start my new job March 1. I am so excited!

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and advice.

Fantastic news! Great!

Had you *not* asked, you always would have wondered in the back of your mind "Should I have.....?"

I'm glad you went for it. I think, even in this economy, it's just about always expected.

Congrats!
