It's for a small local producer. I wouldn't have thought of them as "small" until they started complaining about their profit. So they were happy with the turnover, but totally unhappy with their profit. I have a few suggestions about selling for the sake of selling, but not making important profit. Still, I was there for another position, not giving sales tips.
Anyway, as a consequence of their lamentations, they offered me a salary that offended me. Yes, I am supposed to work from home. Yes, I can arrange my time as I see fit as long as I get the job done with excellence. But does this mean I don't work? I couldn't sleep tonight because of these thoughts and I am a zombie now.
What is it with employers that makes them forget they are dealing with humans? They expect hard work and long hours, they expect flawless projects and a significant return on investment. But the investment is a quarter from the minimum wage! So the results should be measured the same way. Unfortunately for me, I am the hard working type. I don't do a lousy job. Never.
But who is to say that, after my trial period is finished and after I show them what type of employee I am, they will afford me? What if their lamentations about the profit were real, not just an excuse for the low salary they offered?
What should I do? Should I start this game called low-payed-job or should I just stay put and take better care of myself and my baby?
