I had an experience with a business owner who was asking me how much I was willing to work for and he said the absolute lowest. My original ask was $150,000. I turned around and said $150,000 and not one cent less. I didn’t get the job but I am not going to devalue myself and my decades of experience for a cheapskate boss. FYI his office is like a fishbowl and I refuse to work in that environment.
