Yeah. Nah that makes you sound silly (at least for software jobs) unless there is a good reason for it, like currency conversions or peverse tax incentives.

There is a tiny chance that asking for 133700 might get a smile at a smaller tech focused company though.

Hard to know that unless you got some inside to what they were thinking during hire.

If it worked I wonder if it worked as a shibboleth.
