How about this idea as a way to increase salaries: if people apply for jobs
and request a higher salary than what is advertised. Allow me to explain.
Jane Doe is working as a <fill in the blank> making 31K. She sees an ad in
Aviso for a position which requires the same as her current position, only
the advertised salary is stated as "low twenties." Assuming Jane's position
is not in Los Angeles and the advertised position is in Topeka, Jane should
apply for the position, noting her current salary. If museums advertising
jobs at x pay rate only receive applications from individuals who require a
higher salary for the position description - would the museum not have to
adjust what it is willing to pay?
