I should have taken today off so I can write... NewJob negotiations took a turn fr the pathetic yesterday and I'm very frustrated. During the interview, I asked if I would be able to negotiate salary. They said yes. Working with their HR team, I asked about negotiation, and they said yes. Then they lowball the salary offer and explain the negotiation process. So I put together my justification statement and provide a 'meet me halfway' proposal for salary. Then I get a call yesterday saying, "Ooops, we were wrong. There's this reg, see, that says no negotiation." Well isn't that nice. So now I'm weighing options. I'm interested in win-win, not in falling on a sword.

Well, just dang.
