I hate companies that aren’t transparent with salary on job ads

I applied for a job for a tech company as a support person for their software product. No salary was mentioned but I applied anyway. They ask for my salary expectations and I say about $65k (AUD) which aligns with the market rate for that role and I thought was reasonable. I get an offer, I read the contract. A whopping minimum wage contract of 48k AUD inclusive of superannuation . I know there’s heaps of Americans on here but I guess you can do the conversion between usd to AUD. I just feel insulted. I have a degree and experience and I have no value according to them. I fucking hate companies, I wish I could work for myself and make a good living but I don’t know how 🙁 might try learn to code or something. I don’t want to be a wage slave to these shitty companies…

I just feel insulted. I have a degree and experience and I have no value according to them. I fucking hate companies, I wish I could work for myself and make a good living but I don’t know how 🙁 might try learn to code or something. I don’t want to be a wage slave to these shitty companies 🙁

Sorry if I sound entitled I’m just frustrated. 🙁
