I worked for a company last year and asked for a raise when I had a offer from another company. They didn't reply to my email and after three days and I pushed a little more to get a response they basically said “I have read the e-mail”. This is after getting a raise that same year so I accepted staying and not getting a raise.
Que, this year. They call me back and apolagize that they hadn't been able to reach me. I thought they had just ghosted (I put myself on the list I want to work again next year). So on Wednesday we had the conversation and they sent me work agreement papers. The pay on theese are 14 dollar per hour.
Last year i was making 15 dollars. They have not responded to my e-mail from wednesday, from the text message I sent to the person I had the short phone intervju with or when I tried to call her.
I see my way forward in two ways. Either I accept the lower sallary or I wait them out and risk loosing the job all together. I'm thinking about waiting with my decision till atleast Monday or Wednesday. However am kinda leaning towards accepting the lower sallary because I think it is likely I don't find something better for the period. If I do find something better for that period then I can quit.
