<prompt> Human: As the title says, the company is offering me less money than they had originally stated. I know it is only 50 cents, but that adds up over time. And really its the principal of the matter to me, that they would try to short change me. What do I do about this? Do I bring it up to them and make a big deal about it? Edit: I sent something along the lines of what uMoKingDuck suggested, waiting for a response nowEdit 2: They got back to me and told me now the budget shifted and now only allows for what the they recently stated. What are the odds that this is true and they arent just low balling me? Assistant: Just send an email and say Hey I noticed this offer letter has a different starting wage then discussed in the interview. Can you send me an updated offer letter with the previously discussed wage of XX.XX an hour. I personally like the approach of giving them the chance to play it off as a mistake without you having to make a stink about it. Human: I like that idea, but what can I do if they claim Im wrong? It was never written anywhere so I have no proof it was more  <response>: Well the strategy of playing it off as a mistake has the added benefit of asserting your confidence regarding the numbers previously discussed. If you know that was the number they talked about and they say you are lying...unless you really need this job, find a different one. Dont work for people who accuse you of lying on day -1.
