the legal framework in which labor relations exist in the US does not allow for any form of negotiating unless at the owners discretion. most jobs do not negotiate with you and if they do it is a pittance over things like vacation days. i help my brother, who is a recruiter for top financial firms in NYC, and NO ONE gets to negotiate with the companies despite the fact that they're being recruited for managerial and higher positions. considering most jobs in the US are from small businesses, who have almost no room to negotiate, it only adds another nail in the coffin. EXCEPT FOR YOU PROFESSOR WHO IS AN EXAMPLE TO US ALL.
