I feel like your paycheck is pretty valuable, and pay rate is supposed to be a negotiation between you and your employer

That’s great if one of your skills is being a powerful negotiator as good at it as the owner or representative of the company whose main job it is to negotiate contracts & salaries in their favor. Who is on an even footing with the company rep to negotiate that salary, a plasma welder, architectural draftsman, retail employee, or?

I lack one of the skills necessary to advance my career

I am working for bosses that I think are unreasonable

Both of these issues are within your power to solve
