Not only is there an inflation wave thanks to Biden, but a lot of companies are trying to hire super senior developers, but wanting to pay them junior level salaries. I just got done interviewing with a company, and they were trying to pay 50$/hr for a senior/lead developer position. However, they waited until AFTER the interview to try and do a switch and bait on the salary. Scumbags all around

Y'all won't get a professional painter at 12 an hour!

Right, they won't get professional painters- they'll get laborers. They'll do a lousy job.

You get what you pay for. Interestingly, the plandemic hoax has sort of turned the tables when it comes to the employee-employer power dynamic. Right now, employees have more power than they've ever had before, at least in my recent memory (though I am rather young). Two years ago, looking for a job was all about what the worker had to offer.

Now, it's the other way around. What does the company have to offer me? I know what I do, I know I'm dedicated and self-motivated and absolutely earn every penny I make. So I demand to be paid as such. And with good workers in short supply right now... it's up to the company on whether they want to bring in a bunch of temps for low wages, or if they want to find one guy that can do all of those jobs... if you pay him for it.
