Employee resigns, boss tries to cheap out by offering $20 less per hour than what he’s worth to keep him on as a contractor: ‘Their offer was not acceptable’ – FAIL Blog

Of course, this author did his research and assessed if his expertise matched with the hourly rate he was proposing. He also knew that staying on in any capacity should not necessarily mean that his company should be saving money by offering him a contract. 

After all, he is the one who is benefiting them by volunteering his extra time to help train his replacement and keep things running smoothly for the time being. This boss’s inability to stop himself from lowballing his employee is certainly a thing to behold. Denying him that promotion was the reason why he quit in the first place. Now, he’s asked to do the company a favor after leaving and he’s still being undervalued? In our eyes, this is just not worth it for the author to pursue. Onward and upward!
