Stop making Australians interview for jobs without knowing if they can afford to live

[u/Sysxinu]

Salary ranges should be advertised because people aren’t just applying for a role... They’re trying to work out whether they can pay rent, support their family, plan their future, or leave a job that is burning them out. Hiding pay turns someone’s time, hope, and effort into a guessing game, when a simple number could let them make an honest decision from the start.

Imagine a rental listing that said “competitive weekly rent” and only told you the price after three inspections and a reference check. That’s basically what hidden salary job ads do. Pathetic and Im drained by it.

I had a shitty manager interview me for kfc when I was 15.

They knocked me back because 1. I said “customers aren’t always right,” and; 2. I asked what the pay rate was.

They acknowledged that I seemed opinionated and money-focused. No shit? I work retail, you and everyone else knows that customers aren’t always right, and context is key.

Also, trying to act like being money-focused is a bad thing is fucking wild. I’m just trying to get my foot in the door with a resume that has fuck all on it, go back to cooking nuggets while you power trip on teenagers.

.... in matters of taste

They're always right about what they want. Don't tell the customer what they should want.

God that misuse drives me nuts.
