Good luck on the job interview, M.
"Once you accept that a child on the autistic spectrum experiences the world in
 a completely different way than you, you will be open to understand how that
 perspective
    is even more amazing than yours."
    To realize the value of nine  months:
    Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.
"Don't piss off old people The older we get, the less 'Life in Prison' is a deterrent."

Thanks. It went well. The only issue is my salary requirement is 20k lower higher then what they have set as the range. Their range is not comparable to other open EHS Manager jobs in the area. I would be a team of one taking over a shit show. Just what I excel at!

^This.

Or at least stick to your worth (if they want their shit show sorting, they'll find the $$).  Easy.

Morning. I will not take the job if offered at a low starting rate.  I have enough saved that I can afford to wait.

Maybe they spoke with your previous employer. ;)

Good move holding out. Don't negotiate...stand your ground.

And an extra week of vacation.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

And a big bonus upon fixing their shit show.
