I really hate job applications that ask for my “desired salary”. Err, $500 an hour. But I know they’re not going to give me that…

Hate when job applications say “Desired salary ____.” Like obviously I want to make $100/hr but I’m not the one in charge of that..

I really hate when job applications ask you for your desired salary because if I put $1,000,000 in here nobody’s gonna email me back. 😂😂😂
