Could have saved my wife about 3 hours of her time.

$10/hour for a job requiring a master's and 3 years experience...

JFC.

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

Holy cow- I hope she laughed in their faces (or on the phone) and told them they were insane.

$10 an hour???? I make more than that, no masters, pretty much zero experience when I started, and it's definitely an entry level type position.

She sat through the whole interview, and thanked them for their time.

This is the sad state of the work environment right now. 2-3 years ago employers were asking for EVERYTHING for entry level position pay.


Now they are taking advantage even more of the tough job environment with bs like this.


But I have to ask, is she a teacher? That would make sense. We do not pay out teachers sh%^!
