Gawd, I tried asking a Science career forum for the education community some advise on salary bargaining and I was forbidden to talk about specific numbers. (Damn! I got to do more homework.)

Oh, sorry btw, I made it to the next step for my dream job, they are asking me technical questions to be sure I am qualified. After I get the essays back to them, they'll set up a phone interview. (I hope they get to it before I start the new job. Probably no chance that will happen)
