Fuck today is slow. I can't seem to get anything GOOD done, I just put out fires. And I don't feel good and I want to get home!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Oh lord yes. I would like it to end very much.
Why waste my time, and yours, by not telling me the range?
Wrod.
And what else are they going to say? "We're going to low-ball you so just know that now."? "Here, you'll be overpaid!"?
Everyone considers themselves compeditive or at least says they do. Its utterly useless information.
That and "salary conmessurate with experience."
What does that even MEAN? Just friggin tell me what figure you're starting at. Don't make me apply, call me for an interview, and tell me you want the whole world on a silver platter for 26K. Allysons start at 45K, yo.
Maybe I can just put my range of acceptable pay on my resume.
I'm leaving work early (will be in for a few hours over the weekend to make up the time) so I can get my ass over to village hall and register to vote before the 30-day cutoff.

I'd put it in the cover letter, that way you can adjust it as needed.
A lot of jobs I've applied for (with want ads) have asked for a pay range in the cover letter--so as not to waste anyone's time with interviewing someone that's out of range.
In thoroughly random news, for lunch today, I'm mostly eating the left over Indian food from yesterday's free lunch, but by the time I got the the kitchen, people had picked out most of the protein containing parts, so now I'm dipping mozzerella sticks in the left over sauce.
It's weird, but oddly good.
Pay range info is so helpful too in figuring out what level of person they're really looking for, too. Again with the time wasting and the glayvin.

I'm having problems with this right now. I'm interviewing for 3 different positions (I'm the interviewer). We ask for salary history, but most won't give it. If they look promising, I call and do a phone interview, part of which is a salary requirement question. Again, some won't answer.
Recent college grads are delusional. I've had more than 1 person who has just graduated, no real work experience (waitressing at Chili's does not really count) and say they need, minimum, $40K+. Now, if you're in a highly trained area, you would probably get this or more, but not in marketing. C'mon.
