I was talking with a friend recently about a job application. The posting asked for salary expectations. We chatted about it briefly. At the end of our exchange, I emailed the following.

And, yes, you don't want to say, "I'm making significantly less than what is posted, so you can pay me a mere pittance if you like."

First, you don't want to say that because you want to be paid well.

Second, you don't want to say that because it sounds like something from Charles Dickens.
