[QUOTE="keista, post: 463662, member: 11965"] I'm just reflecting on my own experience of being offered WAY below what I was worth and what a position called for. (by the way more than your sis is being offered and I only have an AS degree in my field) Since the position was made specifically for me, they didn't have a pay rate for it and offered entry level pay. It was too funny since they wanted ME and did everything they could to convince me that I should take the job at that rate of pay. I was already single with 3 kids and a mother in law to take care of. I turned down the job. If I had taken it, my self esteem would have taken an even greater hit. About a year later they called me back in as an independent contractor and willingly offered the rate I deserved. It was temporary, but still...... But that's me. Your sister could be from a different mold, and her desire to teach may possibly override any insanity she has to put up with. Also, at her age, unfortunately it might be the best she can get. Either way, she sounds like an AMAZING person and teacher. Kudos to her and a POX on that principal. [/QUOTE]
