ask him about a performance evaluation... not raise... if you are entitled to one, most likely will count towards (and a good chance) for a raise... I got him in 6months... but full time... I got a bit more because I work graveyards and not a lot people like to work graveyards, plus I told my manager that I applied at another place that was paying a bit more, so he matched it.. (which was a little lie, they were hiring but I dont know how much pay was)
