And he said that he thinks he's forgotten 0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:14.039 how to be social, and. 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:17.080 Because he seems social, you know, like no, he was 0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:17.640 he is. 0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:20.720 You know, I think he has some social anxiety just 0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:23.479 like I do. But it was very hard, I think, 0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:26.280 to be uncomfortable in your space with the kind of 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:29.520 people that you had around, because just all felt like family, 0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:31.759 you know, yeah, like maybe you don't know everybody's name, 0:01:31.760 --> 0:01:33.600 but your all family.

The greens though, for me, it's always 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:31.600 about the greens. Yes, the greens and the corn bread. 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:34.560 Oh that corn bread literally me and you said it best. 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:36.760 You were like, yo, the food is like the Thriller 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:38.320 Like I think it was either you so somebody said 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:39.560 it was like the Thriller album. 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.360 No skips, Yes, really need that. 0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:44.359 Yeah. 0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:46.359 I kept looking for something that I didn't want to 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:48.520 eat or that looked like it maybe be a little like, 0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:50.520 you know, like a throwaway for the vegans or something. 0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.360 Nope, but the corn bread was vegan and it was 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:56.560 as skips. It was yesips. 0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:58.919 Honestly, this was probably one of my best birthdays ever 0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.880 from being honest, because I am learning that if you 0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:05.200 want something doesn't magically fall from the sky. Because some 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:07.760 birthdays I'd be like, you know, I don't want any 0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:10.040 do anything, and then nothing happens, and then I'm sad. 0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:12.400 I'm like, well girl, you plan for nothing and nothing happened. 0:03:12.919 --> 0:03:14.840 This time, I said, no, how do you want your 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:16.639 birthday to go?

All right? 0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.640 Got it from a jazzman Janz Jazz. 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.960 It starts off with hey, hey, love that for her. 0:05:58.279 --> 0:06:01.640 I have a question for a future Baqa, which is now, 0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:04.039 please don't use my name, call me Jasmine. 0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:05.800 We love when you give us a fake name. 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.159 I work in healthcare communications and it's something I fell into. 0:06:09.720 --> 0:06:11.720 I've been job hunting for a while and getting a 0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:15.279 few interviews, but never the final offer. All these jobs 0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:18.520 have much higher salaries that I currently make. Recently, we 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:21.480 had a quarterly update where our top boss said, we 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:24.320 know money matters, but we're working really hard to improve 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:31.640 the environment because you stay for people, not money. Spoken 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:34.080 like someone who is untouched by inflation? 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:35.520 Am I right?

She says, anyway. 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:42.719 My question is how do I bring up to my 0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.679 direct manager that money is actually why I say okay, 0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:49.960 And is it possible to leverage interviews into a salary 0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:55.160 increase when it's clear that that's not a retention priority 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:58.960 of the org. I'm open and eager to leave, so 0:06:59.000 --> 0:07:01.359 that's definitely an option. But with no office at the moment, 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:03.600 I want to do what I can where I am 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:05.240 for now. Thanks for your help, and I hope you 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:07.360 have a very happy holiday season. 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:10.040 Gas Man. I see you put your real name here, 0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:12.400 but gas is your name? That made sense? Of course 0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:16.240 it does. And anyway, yeah, so yeah, so much love 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:16.679 to y'all. 0:07:16.800 --> 0:07:20.400 And yeah, so it's the holiday season. 0:07:21.320 --> 0:07:23.320 First of all, I just real quick, and I'm gonna 0:07:23.360 --> 0:07:25.160 you take it, Mandy, because this is the domain. 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.920 Let me read that box for a moment. Is you crazy? 0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:31.960 I mean, what are we talking about? Not in Harriet 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:35.560 Tubman's Internet. Are we talking about people working for free? 0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:37.400 It's giving slavery. 0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:40.200 I mean, I don't know about for free. 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.880 I know, I'm just saying, I'm just this is yeah. 0:07:43.000 --> 0:07:46.560 This is when the HR girls in the back are like, god, damn, 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.120 ben All it is just another ten Another time it's 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:53.560 like I saying the wrong thing, out of touch with 0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:54.040 the people. 0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:56.559 We stay for the people. It's like, people have bills 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.200 to pay? Are you crazy? So I just want to 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:00.440 be them? And then the so, mandra, what do give 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:01.200 jazz jazz? 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:04.320 So my first bit of advice is, don't let this 0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:08.600 offhand remark that was made where your top boss says, 0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:10.960 you know, this completely like out of touch thing. Don't 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.760 let it dissuade you from the facts of the matter, 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.960 which is that obviously you're there for money, and so 0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:19.760 is your that boss whoever said that. So what I 0:08:19.800 --> 0:08:22.800 would do is, Oh, the point I wanted to make 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:25.520 with interviewing is that you don't even necessarily need a 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:27.680 hard and fast job offer to use it as a 0:08:27.760 --> 0:08:30.360 leverage for higher pay. Where you're at the fact that 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:33.640 you have been interviewing, and that you have been interviewing 0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:37.960 and seen a string of opportunities that you're qualified for, 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:40.760 and that you've been interviewing for that pay you significant 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.480 that would pay you significantly more. That in and of 0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:45.560 itself is a piece of data that you can bring 0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:49.200 to your manager and say, hey, I you know, I 0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:54.439 would like to discuss my compensation. I've done my own 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:59.120 market research through just you know, publicly available data that 0:08:59.160 --> 0:09:02.640 you can get online. But also I've been getting approached 0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:06.480 candidly by recruiters from other firms that are and I'm 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:09.360 happy to share with you some of those job descriptions, 0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:14.240 but very similar positions and pay on average twenty five 0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:17.200 percent more or whatever the number is than what I'm making. 0:09:17.440 --> 0:09:21.560 Can we talk about getting my salary in line with 0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:26.280 the market value that it currently is? And I am 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:28.280 sorry to this big boss of yours who said something 0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:33.120 so stupid, but retention salary like market value of someone 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.800 of an employee and paying you properly according to the 0:09:35.800 --> 0:09:38.880 market value that is of the most powerful retention factor 0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.960 out there. And you one would hope that you could 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.520 work with colleagues who are like respectful and not assholes, 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:49.200 and that is nice for a company culture, but it's not. 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:52.200 It's kind of it should be not. It shouldn't be 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:56.240 something that you like. It shouldn't be so rare that 0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:59.280 you're bragging about it, like, well here everyone is great 0:09:59.320 --> 0:10:01.480 and blah blah blah bah blah. Well that's just how 0:10:01.480 --> 0:10:04.360 it should be. But what we can't take for granted 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:07.080 is like, are you paying me my value? So I 0:10:07.080 --> 0:10:10.960 would keep interviewing for sure, and especially since we're heading 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.760 into right now it's late October when we're recording this 0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:16.640 and heading into the end of the year season, I 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:20.559 would put your case together for here is what I've 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:23.480 been hearing, Here's what my market value is today. What 0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:27.319 do we what can we do to get my compensation 0:10:27.440 --> 0:10:30.320 to be more in line with what the marketplace is 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.760 telling me that I'm worth. And just make it about 0:10:32.760 --> 0:10:35.000 the facts. And you don't need to bring up that 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:37.800 conversation about your you know, your boss and what they said, 0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:40.920 And you don't need to say I'm here for the money. 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:44.960 You just need to say the facts of I'm worth 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:46.920 more money, so then pay it to me. 0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:48.800 The end. 0:10:49.520 --> 0:10:53.120 That was good advice, But that was hilarious what no 0:10:53.720 --> 0:10:56.520 I said? That was hilarious about the boss. Oh yeah, 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:57.760 you know, people need money or whatever. 0:10:57.800 --> 0:10:58.640 And what I'm having is a. 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:03.560 Bad girl but Kumbaya and a pizza lunch. Yes, no, 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:06.520 save it, save it, save it, save it. All right, 0:11:06.600 --> 0:11:08.400 We're going to take a quick break and come back 0:11:08.480 --> 0:11:13.760 with another question from my favorite pseudonym ever, corporate Kisha. 0:11:15.480 --> 0:11:17.040 All right, ba fan, we are back. 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:21.160 So we got a DM from corporate Kisha. I love 0:11:21.200 --> 0:11:23.400 this pseudonym. It's one of my favorite alias says we've 0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:26.760 ever had. Corpora Kisha says, I have been a longtime 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:29.160 listener of your podcast, and I've gained so much insight. 0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:32.440 I'm reaching out because I'm currently in corporate law in 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:35.960 a low cost of living southern state, but I'm considering 0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:38.360 moving to New York City. I'd love your thoughts on 0:11:38.400 --> 0:11:42.439 how to approach negotiating a salary increase and relocation package 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:46.600 with my employer to make this transition smooth. I currently 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:49.199 earn one hundred and thirty five thousand dollars per year. 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:53.440 I save and invest actively with thirty five thousand in 0:11:53.559 --> 0:11:57.760 emergency savings. I contribute fourteen hundred a month to my 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:01.480 four oh one K and five hundred to a broken account. Yes, 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:02.200 ten out of ten. 0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:02.720 No notes. 0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:05.600 Given the higher cost of living in taxes in New 0:12:05.640 --> 0:12:09.000 York City, I'm seeking advice on a reasonable salary adjustment 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.520 to maintain my current savings and investments, as well as 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:15.240 guidance on what to expect from a relocation package. Thank 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.959 you for all you do. Looking forward to your advice. 0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:22.200 All right, so let me get something. You're considering a 0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:24.600 move to New York City. Is it just for fundsies 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.160 or is your company moving you to New York City? 0:12:28.160 --> 0:12:34.080 Because that's where it can get challenging in a big way, 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:37.320 because if you're moving because like you just want to, 0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:43.680 you can definitely push for a relocation and compensation adjustment. 0:12:43.720 --> 0:12:46.040 You can ask for it. But if it's not the 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:48.840 company itself telling you that you need to be moving 0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:51.360 to the new city, the likelihood that they'll give it 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:55.960 to you is a lot less, Like I hate to 0:12:55.960 --> 0:13:00.000 bring that to you. And New York City is incredibly expensive. 0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:01.600 Why do you want to come here? 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:04.400 Do you think that she should just interview for brand 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:06.760 new jobs in general in New York with like the 0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:09.640 New York City budget to pay her that? Could? 0:13:09.840 --> 0:13:10.120 You know? 0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:12.560 That could definitely work. I mean, she doesn't say, she 0:13:12.600 --> 0:13:15.320 says corporate law, like, there's a good chance that they 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:17.240 have an office in New York and it could be 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:19.600 that she just wants to move to their New York office, 0:13:20.000 --> 0:13:23.400 you know. And if that's the case, then I think 0:13:23.440 --> 0:13:26.199 she has a better likelihood of getting a relocation package. 0:13:26.240 --> 0:13:28.760 And as far as like what to expect out of it, 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:31.560 it could be that they pay your just the moving expenses. 0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:35.000 It can cost thousands of dollars to move cross country 0:13:35.040 --> 0:13:37.880 and technically south to New York City is kind of 0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:40.640 like cross country even though it's up and down whatever 0:13:42.320 --> 0:13:47.679 geography what. But you might get that relocation package. They 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:50.240 may help you find an apartment, so they may give 0:13:50.280 --> 0:13:53.959 you access to like a realtor or a yeah, I 0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:56.280 guess you're still called the realtor if it's even a renter. 0:13:57.679 --> 0:13:59.840 You're helping renters find a place, but hook you up 0:13:59.840 --> 0:14:01.920 with someone a broker maybe who can help you find 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:08.560 your first apartment. Moving expenses, but the compensation package, you 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:12.760 would for sure want to do some you know, do 0:14:12.840 --> 0:14:15.080 some research into your company itself and like see if 0:14:15.080 --> 0:14:18.480 they mention anything on their website about cost of living 0:14:18.480 --> 0:14:22.480 adjustments for relocation benefits. That's typically like something that if 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.200 it's an established firm, which it sounds like you work for, 0:14:25.360 --> 0:14:28.080 like the HR team's probably going to have like a 0:14:28.160 --> 0:14:31.720 structured plan for how we determine like or do cost 0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:35.360 of living adjustments. And they may say, okay, based on 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.320 this new office and cost of living, here's the expected 0:14:38.360 --> 0:14:41.080 salary increase and here's where when it would go into effect. 0:14:42.160 --> 0:14:43.920 But as far as like being able to negotiate on 0:14:43.960 --> 0:14:47.000 top of that, that gets a lot trickier. So it 0:14:47.040 --> 0:14:49.360 may not be that you can save exactly as much 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:53.160 as you're saving, you know, however much they decide to 0:14:53.160 --> 0:14:56.880 give you a month, like they decide what you know, 0:14:56.920 --> 0:15:00.280 they'll look at probably the Department of Labor and and 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.320 like other sources to find out what the standard costs 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:08.560 of living are where you are, but to to guarantee 0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:11.360 you'll have enough room in your budget for this generous 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:16.160 savings you know, strategy that you have and investing strategy 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:19.480 that you have. They're not gonna necessarily think about that 0:15:19.760 --> 0:15:22.160 or guarantee it, so that that's going to be up 0:15:22.200 --> 0:15:25.920 to you to figure out. Okay, do that makes sense? 0:15:26.440 --> 0:15:27.000 It does? 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:30.640 I mean I think I was just word vomiting. 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:32.400 No, And I don't know. 0:15:32.400 --> 0:15:35.240 If you've been to New York before, you might want 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:38.320 to spend a little extra time before making the move move. 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:42.800 I mean, like I also moved up here, but I 0:15:42.840 --> 0:15:44.800 didn't move with a job. I mean I did move 0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:46.720 with the job that I did have a salary when 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:49.400 I moved up here, but I didn't like relocate within 0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:55.040 the same company. Hmm. But the outer boroughs are where 0:15:55.120 --> 0:15:57.520 it's at if you would like to save money, but 0:15:57.560 --> 0:16:02.440 then you have to factor in like your transportation. Yeah, 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.800 there's all sorts of things, but I would never like, 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:06.040 I'm not at all going to be one of those 0:16:06.040 --> 0:16:07.800 people who's like New York City has closed, you can't 0:16:07.800 --> 0:16:09.080 come here, Like, no, come on. 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:15.520 Girl for Atlanta. Atlanta is like I'm tied god. Yeah. 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:17.720 And also two they're I mean there are you know, 0:16:17.720 --> 0:16:18.200 people be. 0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:21.160 Talking back about Jersey, but I live here and I'm Winny. 0:16:22.200 --> 0:16:23.880 So yeah, no matter where you go, it's you know, 0:16:23.920 --> 0:16:26.400 there you are basically, so you know, I just want 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:28.760 you to go with like all like the what is 0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:29.400 it going to cost? 0:16:29.440 --> 0:16:30.280 What does actually look like? 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.920 And then also adjusting expectations there are you know, there's 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:35.480 a difference like I don't know, if you live at 0:16:35.480 --> 0:16:37.400 a home now you're likely to be living in an apartment, 0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:39.480 you know, is it a walk up? It's different like 0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:41.440 moving from the house of the condo. There's definitely some 0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:44.120 things I'm like, wait, so how do I do groceries 0:16:44.160 --> 0:16:46.600 because I parked here, but the interest is here, so 0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:48.280 I had to buy one of them little carts you know. 0:16:48.720 --> 0:16:49.880 Oh I know. 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:52.480 I was like, I'm a cart lady, which is actually 0:16:52.520 --> 0:16:53.600 kind of fun because I'm twelve. 0:16:56.280 --> 0:16:57.920 But then you know, before you know, you take it 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:00.720 to groceries and you're like, oh, two three trips? Anybody 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:03.640 got time for that? We all going together. 0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:08.520 So there's just the adjustments. And then also too, like 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:10.240 I said, if you live in a house, I mean, thankfully, 0:17:10.240 --> 0:17:12.280 my neighbors are pretty quiet, but then you know there's 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:14.320 you know, especially New York. I'm not gonna lie. When 0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:16.920 I visit my friends, I'm like, so all night long, 0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:19.800 oh every day, can SI getta? 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:21.320 Well? 0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:27.000 Listen, my neighbor plays very loud Philippino, So I guess 0:17:27.000 --> 0:17:30.800 that's what's the tug along anyway?
