I am the worst negotiator ever. I got called into a meeting today and I knew what it was about. I was being offered a permanent position at Konecranes. Armed with this knowledge, I completely bombed it. I had an idea of what I wanted, I had an idea of what I expected, and I had an idea of what the lowest possible offer they might give me would be. Guess what they offered. The lowest. And I, like the worst negotiator in the world I am, took the offer with no debate. The benefits better be fantastic.
So I think I am going to go in and talk about the situation with my supervisor tomorrow morning. They already know that I am not exactly thrilled with the offer, but I like the job so we might be able to figure something out. Or I will struggle on in practical poverty. Yeah, that is prolly what will happen. Poverty in this sense of course meaning I will have to postpone the purchase of my first jet-ski for at least one more summer. Major bummer. This blog earning needs to pick the heck up.
