Two things

quote:

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.


First, since he’s tried to hire you before then he knew what you were making and didn’t want to leave money on the table. Also, maybe that’s what he needed to pay to get the previous employee.

Second, you must have made a hell of an impression on him but the guy sounds like an overbearing PITA.

I never asked him for a job though. He basically recruited me just to pull this crap.



Based on your OP, you strung him along, gave him reason to think you were interested and were never clear about what it would take to hire you.

The reality is that he might have been interested in hiring you simply because he had the impression (even wrongly) that he could get you at that discount.

It would have been as simple as letting him know what it would take to hire you...but you weren't willing to do that.

While I'm sure this guy is a tool, you caused this. Be professional, tell him what it would take (or tell him there's no amount that would make you take the job at this time) and move on.

You deserve no special treatment. You don't automatically deserve the salary the person before you made. If you had requested that amount, I suspect you would have found out quickly if he valued you enough to get that offer.

And, your "he didn't even ask if I was upset" is a humorously, stereotypical, female reaction. The irony is thick.

Men have to go through what you went through several times in their life. You sound like youre a typical overly entitled American woman that so many men get tired of dealing and often get "female fatigue" from.

You aren't shielded from difficult things just because you're a woman. With feminism, you have to work just as hard as men now. Deal with it.

Please go somewhere else for anti-male rhetoric… Most of us are men here. But sorry he was so wishy-washy and pressured you that’s all I have.

What you did was teach him just how much hassling it takes to get your attention... you let your boundaries slide and blur out of the typical female instinct to play nice.


How?

I read that whole thing not seeing who posted and thinking it was a dude. I was saying to myself: “The guy hiring has the gay and wants some of OP.”


Same here, then I realized it was a woman….who just had a baby……who wanted to work remotely……who wanted the same salary as the full time in office male worker….who wasted a page talking about a job offer she didn’t take.

A guy’s post would say, “ I was offered a job, countered, decided to stay at present job.”

Experience tells me most female employee with a newborn is late, misses work, needs to leave early, complains about how hard motherhood is with work, wants to personalize everything, constantly distracted, won’t take criticism, will cry at work. Husbands never seem to be available for baby needs, so wife needs to take off.

Guy shows up on time, works, never hear about personal life. You can jump their arse if they slack off.

His texts were about him and not about how I feel." It's a job offer/negotiation
you don’t think it’s weird that he’s asking me if I’m upset with him since it’s a job/negotiation? The grace y’all are extending to this man is insane.

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


You did everything right.

He’s being really aggressive for some reason or another. He’s out of bounds in my mind.

Can you rephrase this? Doesn’t make sense.
