primitive has job interview

Asking about Desired Salary
 
I have an interview tomorrow. One question I can't stand is what is my desired salary. I think it's rude. I was taught that he who mentions money first loses. What the employer is saying is "lose". I also think it's a lazy way to weed out potential employees.
Companies should either tell you up front what the pay is, or negotiate later.
Companies have a leg up on the workers, and they feel they can do just about anything they want.

This primitive shouldn't lose sleep over it. He's unlikely to get the job, and even on the small chance he does, once they evaluate his poor job performance they'll show him the door.

He should smoke a joint so he will be relaxed when asks for a "living wage".

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

Here is a helpful interviewing tip:

Have the company logo tattooed on your neck. Visibility is key here. Enhancements include a red circle w/slash thru the competition's logo. This is best displayed on the hands. If space is unavailable on the hands, the wrists and/or ankles make good substitute sites. As a last resort, the forehead can be utilized. However, corporate America understands that this site is generally reserved for family artwork.

Nothing says 'Fearless decision maker' to a potential employer like L-O-V-E tattooed across the first finger joints of one hand and H-A-T-E on the other one.

I generally have a good idea what my field pays. Recently, I took a position with another company and gave my notice. When asked would would it take to keep me I gave them a large number... what I felt I was worth.  They said ok and here I stay   :)

Sometimes just say what is on your mind. You might find out others agree with you.

I'm glad when they ask what pay I expect.  I'm not going to waste mine and everyone else's time by taking a low wage job that I will leave after I find a higher paying job.  And Yes, companies have a leg up.  They are the friggin company!  Don't like it don't try to work for them! :rant:

I sure wouldn't.

Many jobs list the salary as "commensurate with experience."

The proper answer to "what do you want as your salary?"  is "I do not mean to offend but I am sure your salary will be fair based on my experience and the marketplace today.  I am more interested in how I can contribute to your company than in what I will receive -- in the long run salary issues will take care of themselves."

But DUmmies would never in a million years come up with that answer.
