I'm guessing that the tips is more a bargaining tactic than a real ask. They're also asking for 45 paid days off for "bereavement leave" including for the death of a close friend or pet. 45 days of paid leave would be over 2 months off. It seems unlikely that a company would consider 2 months paid leave for the death of a pet. Imagine employees buying goldfish.
- anigbrowl 3y agoThat's no excuse. 'No harm in asking' BS requests are antithetical to serious negotiation. It doesn't matter what side it comes from. This isn't just a union v corporation thing, it shows up in all sorts of contexts like lowballers on Craigslist or bid sniping on Ebay. Almost invariably it's simple greed.
