Boss rescinds job offer immediately after candidate asks them about paying schedule, claiming: ‘I don't like staff always asking about pay’

In a perfect world, people would work because they enjoy what they do, and only care about the job itself, nothing else. Unfortunately, in our world, most people work because they need money, which means that the work itself is not really a top priority for employees.

So if a job candidate asks a question about the pay, that should come across as acceptable and reasonable for all hiring managers. Employees deserve to know everything they need to before taking on a new job, and they should definitely care about the money they get from it. Expecting employees to just accept their job, without inquiring about pay, is downright toxic.

That is why the job candidate who wrote this Reddit story should not accept the job they wanted after their future boss told them they 'don't like when staff asks questions about pay', when all OP (original poster) asked was how often the pay gets sent out.
