Hola

No exigí, mandé que mi jefe me da un aumento del sueldo. Él me rió antes de despedirme.

Cuidáos amigos

No pedi, sino que exigí a mi jefe un aumento de sueldo. Él se rió antes de despedirme.

Exigir es lo máximo que puedes hacer, más que mandar y más que pedir.

A un jefe no le mandas un aumento de sueldo, sino que él te manda hacer algo.

Mandar también significa enviar (send)
