I sent a passive aggressive email back, if it's any consolation. I can't believe I was stupid enough to not clarify that 40h increase would mean a wage increase as well?? I thought it was implied! Fuck me I guess.
Hell yeah, be less passive and more aggressive! What are they gonna do, fire you?? Seriously, you might have some power cuz workers are in high demand.
I haven't signed the contract yet. I'm just fuming because second interview I assumed I would get, say, 17 an hour and now it's 13 an hour and even MORE hours. And it's not even in the field I studied for. I worked so hard for four years, doing the work of two degrees, and to get this shitty response? I'm so upset I can't send them a "Fuck off" letter.
It may be worth it to walk away. It's reasonable to feel like you have to take anything at this point, but if it's not going to meaningfully improve your financial situation, then maybe you shouldn't.
You could tell them to fuck off, just decide if you want to with a clear head. You have all the power rn if you didnt sign yet. Do what makes you happy, as long as you can afford to eat!
