American workers are demanding at least nearly $76,000 annual wage from potential employers before taking a job due to high inflation and a tight labor market.

Employee wage expectations skyrocketed to a new high of $75,811 a year in March, according to the SCE Labor Market Survey from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.
