Absolutely not. Tell them when you get a job offer though.

Absolutely not lol

Of course!

What’s funny about that

No

It’s not funny lol. This happens all the time. We are in high demand areas and people will try to poach you

I don’t understand why everyone is all hung up on the word funny

I’d go and interview. The labor market is so tight that nobody can find enough workers so they’ll probably pay really well

Hey! I just did it and left for a new job 10 months after starting…

Nope

New at the job? No. But I’m currently 17 years in and I do tell my boss, from time to time, about a few odd job inquiries I get. I would a total liar at this point if I said I never got any!

Hey all! I went through the interviewing process with a company and we had a verbal agreement on X amount of salary per year. They liked me and extended an offer but the offer was for $15K less than what we agreed bc that’s what HR approved for. I was desperate so I took it. Accepting this offer meant that I had to relocate to the other side of the country. Omw that was 2500 miles, I received a call that they rescinded the offer. Is there anything legal that I can do to sue them?
