first of all, job interview isn't the time and place to negotiate the salary.

get the job first...THEN negotiate later.

In NYC and LI, when I used to do Construction over the summers, I got anywhere from $10-$15/hour.

You should ask them how to spell tomorrow.




Someone proof reading your application wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Don't forget to mention your California drug warrants. I'm sure that will help your negotiations a lot...Also, be sure to mention that you were SALT trained by the local Laborers union. They'll appreciate that....

If they build Wally-world stores, an entry-level laborer's job is probably minimum wage or just above, with NO beneifts, so you can get medical from the state, just like Wally-World does for their treasured employees...

They aren't affiliated with "Walley-world". Just because an evil company hires them to build their stores doesn't mean they will treat their employees the same.
