Pay increases

I have been an MT for 1 year now. I currently make a little over 6 cents a line. I'm due for a pay increase soon. Just wondering what would be the typical pay increase for an MT after the first year. I know it's hard to give an exact number as I'm sure it varies, but I'm just curious. Would I be lucky enough to get up to 7 cents a line or would it be more like 6-1/2 maybe. Thanks for any insight offered.
