If you can't,
or won't, live on that money, then you ought not take the job. Before you
take any job, you balance the cost of living, commuting, etc against what
they have offered you. In that sense, the onus is on you.
That seems a bit harsh. If jobs are as hard to come by as I'm reading, you
have to take what you can get. Once hired, however, wouldn't you stick
around only long enough to gain the experience required by the positions
which post to museum-l? In between all these threads about salaries in the
low twenties and living on Ramen, job postings appear, and they seem to
offer in the 30k range. I should pay better attention, but is there a fast
and easy explanation for this discrepancy? Is it just that entry and
midlevel positions don't get posted to this list? too many candidates
available by word-of-mouth? -S
