it's likely this new position offers less benefits or pays less.
No. I was in the posted salary range -- I had taken a pay cut to work there. I probably would have asked for a raise at my one-year review, but they could have said no, and I'm not sure how much difference it will really make to pay a recent grad $26K vs. paying me $29K anyhow. And I didn't really have any benefits, I was never on their health insurance and had only been eligible for the 401(k) (no employer matching) for three weeks.
Like I said, this is all just extremely fishy and depressing.
Congratulations, Cashmere, DH, and big brother Owen!
lyra that really really sucks.
IS it just me or is yahoo.com now a big advertisement for GoDaddy.com?
Hey, Polter, how goeth the job search?
It bloweth. I can't even find any damn jobs to
apply
for, let alone get hired.
I get the regular yahoo screen, askye.
P-C, what exactly are you looking for? What area?
Yippee for Soon to be Big Brother Owen!
Are Buffistas hiding their ugly babies?
I am convinced that if a Buffista had a baby that was ugly, said baby would be just hiding all the spectacular good looks for adult-hood, when baby would become so beautiful we would all die.
Perkins, aren't you on vacation?
ETA: Lyra, that just proves they're a bunch a creeps. I'm glad you're outta there! (But sorry you don't have work.)
Right now, I'm looking for just about anything science-y or writer-y to fund me while I look/wait for a medical science liaison position to open up in an area yet to be determined. Lab work, medical writing, editing, whatever. I'm in Ann Arbor, but I know I can do this sort of thing remotely, the writing/editing part, you know? I came across a listing of a pharm company in New Jersey that has a backlog of papers they need edited and figures made for so they can get them published, but all I have is the address and no other contact information. The local newspaper doesn't take freelance science writers; I'm going to call up the
Detroit Free Press
next. I have a feeling that rather than find an actual job, I may be able to make do for a while finding lots of profitable small gigs. If only I could find them.
Meanwhile, I keep getting e-mails from random insurance companies who believe I am an "excellent candidate" for selling insurance.
Perkins, aren't you on vacation?
Depends on how you define vacation.
