What’s with this title?

You've never had a job interview?

The title means that businesses know exactly how to pay their vendors and all the bills they must pay but when it comes time to pay for the service of an employee's labor they suddenly think the employee should want to do the job for free, or for little money, or for personal enjoyment. They treat the job as gift that they will bestow upon a deserving person and they don't see your labor as any other good/service which they must pay for when running a business.

Do you work in HR? How did you not get that?

Bahaahahaaa. Thank you, needed that chuckle.

That's quite a bit of gymnastics, but I concede, it's a good one in the end.

While I fully agree with the sentiment here, getting all that from the title and the comic is a bit of a stretch. We don't all live inside your head, dude.

I pretty much picked up on what they were going for. Some context clues and not working in HR helps. :)
