    Take that emotion and realize that if you had competing job offers, it is your duty to advocate for yourself so that you leverage the highest starting package you are able to.

    Accepting of a job is a contract. You should never feel guilty. They are buying your services and want to offer the smallest amount of money they can. You are offering your services and want the most amount of money you can get. You both are competing with one another to get the better deal.

    While not your enemy, they certainly are not your friend in the negotiation process

    I cannot imagine why I would. I've turned down countless jobs over the years. I've never felt guilty for any of them.

    Absolutely. It's also normal to feel bad about leaving a job for a better one.

    I do not see why. It would not be wise to take a job you do not want. It will not end well.

    Sure, but don’t let it stop you. ‘Show me the money!’

    No, it's not normal. You gotta get over that. You got other stuff in your life to accomplish/worry about.

    Not guilt. Regret. I prefer not to reject a female's invitation to intimacy.

    Yeah. I mean if he wants a bj you should be sympathetic at least to his needs.
