Tutoring, summer camp .. luckily my school district offers a summer savings program. 10% of each check is deferred for the summer. I know it is not easy..also some districts offer paid work like curriculum writing and planning. I avoid summer school at all costs. You didn't listen to me all year and now I am going to teach in the summer?! What's going to happen differently?

My school splits your salary into 12 month payments. Which is ridiculously nice. So I am still getting paid through the summer. I make 39k, so not a ton of money. But still. I am I still making exactly what I make during the school year each paycheck. So I don't really need a summer job. However, I have gotten into the habit of volunteering (so I have something to do) or walking/watching people's dogs for some extra cash. Something easy to do and I enjoy. I also can do it when I want to and not do it when I want to. I have no obligation like I would a paying part time job.

Oh and summer school. I also do VIPKid, rover and promotions during the school year. I usually have 1-2 days off of all my jobs per month. I’m always exhausted. But paying college loans (bachelors and masters) and a car payment, and insurance and rent and groceries, and care for 3 dogs (including 2 dog knee surgeries this year ($6,000) means I need to work nonstop to make ends meet.

About what percent of reps hit their number at your company? I’ve been an enterprise AE in SaaS for 6 years and it’s like feast or famine at both companies I’ve been at. I’ve done solid but you can’t help but feel annoyed to see the same reps getting handed opportunities.

Hi, I'm an artist with 5 years of experience in the game developmentindustry.

After interview sessions, it comes to salary negotiation. To my surprise, the salary offer is below industry average, even more like junior-level salary.

Though my experience includes team leadership and I have described in detail how I could contribute to the company, the interviewer raised the offer, adding $300 only, still in junior salary range.

What does it really mean, and how do I win the negotiation?

TIA.

My school is a small rural school. We don’t offer many in-house electives. What’s happening is students are having to take whatever is there to fill their schedules.
