00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.880
Spirit rocket has made a really big impact on my life because as I said, I came

2
00:00:05.880 --> 00:00:09.000
to know Spirit rocket during a time of crisis in my life.

3
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:13.890
I was literally like, you know, at negative five digits a month and I needed to

4
00:00:13.890 --> 00:00:17.000
find the client pass and I didn't know how.

5
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:21.060
So I was quite surprised when, you know, the payment structure here is

6
00:00:21.060 --> 00:00:24.000
different. You negotiate your own salaries, basically what happens.

7
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:29.790
I may need to add this when I got the job, because I was experienced, I just

8
00:00:29.790 --> 00:00:35.530
asked for five or six dollars per hour. That's because I felt experienced, but

9
00:00:35.530 --> 00:00:37.000
that wasn't my need.

10
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:42.170
That was way less than my need. I needed to get my put in. When I got in, I

11
00:00:42.170 --> 00:00:47.590
started showing off all my skills. Right. Like, I wanted to make them see how

12
00:00:47.590 --> 00:00:52.000
lucky they were to have, you know, a hard working resource full person.

13
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:57.950
And then close to the one year mark, I really negotiated. I gave her the

14
00:00:57.950 --> 00:01:02.760
situation and I said, this is what I actually need. I gave the amount that I

15
00:01:02.760 --> 00:01:04.000
need, which is more than double.

16
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.280
She did like some mental math, if it's going to work out and then she told me,

17
00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:13.810
I think you're worth it. I guess the lesson I'm trying to impart here is you

18
00:01:13.810 --> 00:01:19.000
can ask for a big salary if the client does not know what you're capable of yet

19
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:19.000
.

20
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.990
The only thing they're going to think of is like, this person's asking for too

21
00:01:22.990 --> 00:01:26.000
much and then you won't get hired. Right.
