Salary expectations: how do you answer? - 11 weeks in

I have been out of work for 11 weeks and feel pressure to accept less. I am in Oklahoma City, in case local advice matters. I looked up ranges in Oklahoma City and they vary a lot. What did you say?

Thanks for writing this out. I went through something close to it 4 months ago, and it settled down once I kept a simple log of every call and form.

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It saved me later.
