How would you feel if a company lied to you about your salary just to lure you into an interview? Angry and betrayed, right? One of the many reasons why you apply to a certain company for a certain job is due to a good salary package. And when you realize that requirement does not get fulfilled by the company, you would want to run away from it as far as possible as quickly as you can.
In today’s story posted on the infamous subreddit r/antiwork, we get given a practical example of this. Jessica got an interview call and her excited self went for it. During the interview, her confidence was good enough to ask what salary will they pay her to which she disappointingly found out that they had lowered her original rate by $3.15. As she was not getting the agreed-upon rate, she proceeded to ask why. To this, the interviewer responded by saying you are already here so you might as well take the offer.
Guess what? Jessica did not take the offer, instead, she asked to go to the bathroom, left the building, and went home.
Scroll down below to read how it all went down.
#1 Jessica successfully passed her over-the-phone interview and they mutually agreed on a rate. In the physical interview, the company decided to lower that amount.
#2 Upon knowing they had lowered her salary, Jessica requested to use the bathroom and went home instead. These are the texts she received after she left.
#3 This should’ve been Jessica’s response.
#4 It really was a creative way of saying “no thanks!”
#5 Jessica must let the world know about these liars.
#6 They really were being very hilarious.
#7 This was legendary.
#8 I feel bad for people in desperate need of a job. Without any other option, they are forced to accept the lower rate.
#9 I am sorry but this was the best way to confront them. And her asking the salary rate was nothing but pure confidence.
#10 $3.15 sounds less unless you annualize it.
#11 What made them think she would accept the job after being told they will pay her less than the amount agreed upon.
I really don't understand why companies do such things. Now imagine if Jessica was that one golden star all companies want to have. There is a possibility had they hired her, she may have put in the most amount of effort one could possibly could and turn the company over into making millions of dollars. No, they do not think like that. They only think about the immediate gain and it always backfires.
