I've been out of a job for about 3 months now and my job hunt standards are starting to slip so I applied for my old position at a company I left in 2021. I was making $17 an hour there and left after another company offered me the market rate for the same position, $20 an hour. Well they call me today and in the phone interview said the rate for my old position is now $15 an hour. Seriously, the fuck is this shit? How does the starting rate go down?
