At the rate they are going, knock off Barbie Jeeps is all they are likely to get.

Reply to comment by RepresentativeError8 in A job interview ended because I refused to tell them what my current salary was and what my salary expectations were. Is this normal? by RepresentativeError8

I man the future, I would look up the expected salary ranges on the web and provide an “expectation range” based on the results. I agree that you shouldn’t have to share your current salary, but it’s also helpful for both sides to see if expectations are similar on both sides.

The situation sounds like total bullshit. Normally if you are in this situation, they should just give you a wide range based on their own comp research.

Reply to Toured apartment, promised a unit at a certain price. I applied and now they are saying that unit will not be available and they won't refund the app fees. Next steps? by [deleted]

Ask for them to honor the price on a similar unit, since you already applied. You applied for a specific unit and a specific price. I don’t agree with their strategy here, but they are doing this because they want you to move-in. Not because they want your $400.

Be nice, but firm. Ask them for a complete refund immediately, or to apply the price to a similar unit. If they say no or cannot give you a firm answer, follow up by asking for the Regional Manager’s contact info.

As always, remember to be nice. No one wants to help an asshole. Especially when they are going to see you every month when you pay rent.
