I just got a resume for a software programmer
who hasn't even graduated college yet (May 06), asking for $87.000. His work experience consisted of working at Tower Records and as a dorm RA.

I think you're pricing yourself out of the market, there, buddy.

6. I don't even make that much, and I'm the PM!
Which, as I reflect on it, is very, very sad.
