There is a company who has used an agency to contact me 4 times over
a 6 month period. Each time, they want to pay $30 per hour. I counter
with $55. The reason they've contacted me 4 different times? They
keep hiring people at $30 but they don't work out. They keep coming
back because they say my credentials are EXACTLY what they need.
They can't seem to understand that it isn't me who needs $55, but
those credentials.
