Sounds like he's still interested in hiring you. Come back with the $35,000 or more as a counter. Or just keep thinking you are somehow being dissed because you are a woman.

you type this shite and wonder why people think very low of you. Your post history should be a case study of female fatigue.

You sound incredibly entitled. You allowed your hatred of men to color your perception of them situation. You were courted by a potential employer who valued your skillset to the point that after you rejected their initial offer, they upped their offer tremendously.

Do you have any idea how much such sn offer would mean to most people?

Instead of being grateful and declining it respectfully because it wasn’t the position you wanted, you chose to get offended and burn a bridge. Your internal perception of men caused you to project negative intent on a situation that likely didn’t have any. Instead of gratitude, you felt disgust and resentment.

Yeah, this could be a positive in the long run, but whatever.

I say 14 pages regardless.

I actually read all of that and the real conclusion is women suck because guess what....that's business. That's what women said they wanted, they want all the good but expect none of the bad parts of dealing with the business world. The fact you think being lied to is strictly a male issue in the business world is beyond stupid, pathetic and makes you look naive at best but more likely sexist. To summarize...frick off

I find his behavior to be extremely unprofessional. I would never want to work for someone like that.

I’m sharing this because people here sometimes ask why I don't give men the benefit of the doubt or why I "hate men." It’s not hatred. It's the experience of being treated like a plaything by mediocre men looking for an ego boost over and over for years. I am "fatigued."

Nothing you wrote aligns with this conclusion.

I checked public records that night and saw that the last person in the same position he offered me made $35,000 more than what he offered me.


…and you still would have been vastly overpaid had you taken the job at that rate. LA state employees are the most spitefully unhelpful people on earth, and work at a snails pace. Great place to grow a huge arse and get diabetes though.

I would literally be losing money if I took the “tremendously increased” offer. It would cost me more than $5,000 a year in gas alone.

I thanked them and did decline respectfully. He the disrespected me by continuing to call me about it.

No offense, but part of the problem is that you don't know what you really want and it is causing issues with your negotiation.

You are treating it like dating. This isn't some guy you can just string along while you decide what you want out of life. Sit down and be an adult.
What number would tip the scale to work for this a-hole? How many days do you need a week work from home that is not negotiable? Then pick numbers 10-15% more than this and make a counter offer.

You will know in 20 seconds how serious it is.

I’ve been low balled for an offer before

When you found out the salary, why didn’t you ask for $40k more and see if he accepted since he was clearly desperate to hire you? Make him decline instead of getting all pissy and making this long post against someone offering you a job at a time when a ton of people are struggling with work

After reading all your drunken ramblings on TD, that man needs a psychiatric examination for wanting to hire you that badly.

Not sure he is disrespecting you. He doesn't sound like he dug in that deep to think of it that way. When i have to hire people and we get to that point, you want the fish in the boat because it makes your life easier. You were just his path for it to be easier at work.

Sounds like a SloChubPro AI chatbot puking out a feminazi, men are bad, fantasy in order to maintain the psychotic, everlasting gobstopper of hatred burning through their hellbound souls.

I never did when I was a software engineer in the 80s and 90s working for a defense contractor in Silicon Valley.

I was even awarded as a top performer given to only 20 people out of 2000 at my company.

I liked working with men. I also just make friends easily.

By the way, my dad was the one who encouraged me to go into engineering because I was better at math than my brothers.


I've been surrounded by good men in my life: dad, brothers, husband, son, and countless friends
