“Always Sunny” Job Negotiations

The following clip is from the “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” from the season 4, episode “Sweet Dee has a Heart Attack”.  Mac and Charlie are in need of health coverage, so they negotiate themselves out of a higher wage.

Remember during your job negotiation:

The Do nots:
1) Go in to an interview with someone other than yourself or share a resume (0:04)
2) Use personal lingo/jargon.  Stay formal with your presentation (0:18)
3) Say personal achievements that everyone should have done (i.e. showering, going to the bathroom, “complete charge of my life”) (0:26)
4) Offer illegal actions for an employer (0:42)
5) Reveal what your intentions with your pay will be (“You don’t have to pay us at all,” or “This is not about money.”) (1:01)

The Do’s:
1) Come with a resume
2) Wear your best clothing (professional suits preferred, though)
3) Subtly stress your values (“going green” like Mac and Charlie)
4) Show your enthusiasm to work (“[I] can do whatever you need”)
5) High five the employer (just kidding, a handshake will do just fine)
