What they really want, is to pay the best person they can get the absolute minimum they need to pay them.

Right, but workers aren't robots lining up for the quickest hiring they can get. They compare salaries to other places, lol.

I don't think people are that clueless about their worth.

Of course, but why does this guy (or his client) not want to advertise that he's willing to pay 135k for someone who can do the job well? Because he wants to get the lowest he can get away with
