You’re applying to and weeding out jobs that don’t suit you.
Your price is your price. They don’t have to like it and you don’t have to work with them.
I’ve told $50K jobs I wouldn’t do it for less than 5x, 250K, lol. Yeah, I didn’t get a follow up. Oh well. These are my terms. You want me in office for a 50k/yr role? I’ll do it for 250k. This ensures I don’t end up with a role not suited for me.
