Strategically handle manager's job without title or pay

I took on extra work without a title change or pay bump, but documented my tasks and presented my results to my manager

What I wish I knew
"To document my tasks and prepare for a discussion about a title change and pay bump earlier"
If I could tell you one thing
"Limit the 'free trial' of your labor to 90 days and use it as a paid internship for your next career jump"
