Home Depot job what to do

[mjjstang]

hey just wanted to know what you guys would do. so some time ago I worked for compusa. and I got fired for writing a bad email to a distributor for compusa. so I got fired from corporate. yet the store manager didnt want to he had to. so now he is store manager at home depot and Wants to hire me because he knows im a pretty damn good worker. so I tell him right now im making 11 bucks an hour landscaping even though im making 9. so he goes what do you want to make. I told him 9 plus after 30 days you get a 50 cent raise. The reason I told him 9 was because a HR guy there told me thats about the highest I can make to start. he was dumb though. so the store manager immediately says ok 9 it is. no hesitation. now im thinking about it and I think im getting shafted. I know that home depot pays pretty well and 9 isnt that great for being 18 with 4 years in retail. I know this is stupid, but my mom told me to go back to him and ask for more. that seems pretty awkward to me. what would you guys do.
