I work as a receptionist. Normally, my duties consist of phone support, messages, filing, collating, stapling, copying, that sort of thing.
Recently, one of my coworkers has been shifting more and more of their workload onto me. Today,I was asked to take on a creative project that employed a great deal of the skills I acquired pursuing a Bachelor Degree, skills that are not required in my position as a receptionist, and work that is well beyond my duties.
My question is, what is the most politic way of telling my employer that I don't feel I am compensated well enough to take on this duty in addition to the rest? Note that I do this job much, much better than the person who is responsible for doing it, and she is compensated much more than I for having the responsibility of doing it.
Suggestions?
