My dickhead boss brags about how much money he makes all the time. Sombitch has a bunch of practically free, nigh-on slaves and two dudes who make a pittance.

You kidding? Think there wasn't an IT presence on those archaic systems back then? 94, 95 and 96 were all cutting edge years. I was at PageNet then. Remember PageNet? World's largest paging provider? By 1997, VoiceNow hit the market and flopped. Why? Cellular figured out voicemail on phones (Nokia) and not just pagers.

Hell NO. Thats a firing offense most places. Your deal is your deal unless you're union. Bitches discuss their pay. Men do not.

Only if they make more than me, so no.

Never. Never tell your coworkers how much you make–instead let your employer know how much your should be making.

We don't discuss figures, but every time I've called the president to discuss a bigger than usual raise, he has said that his goal is to compensate his employees such that if the list got leaked, he could justify everyone's pay. Of course, he wouldn't answer me when I asked how much so and so made.
A few other managers and I who have come up together discuss generalities with each other and try to guess what senior managers are making. I try to use that during my raise discussions. It's worked for the most part.

White male privilege!

I get raises by switching jobs. It's also worked for the most part

It´s quite uncouth, yet A LOT of people do it.

Boss? Yes. Coworkers? Never in a million years

No. They technically aren't supposed to punish you for it but it's still frowned upon. Plus they'll remember it if you ever want a favor from upstairs.
It's just a bad idea all around. It can lead to jealousy/bad feelings.

I kige this.
I really don't care if someone else is making more. Doesn't affect me. If I want more, I can ask for a raise or get another job.

Of course. How else can I justify my jacked up Chevy Duramax with truck nuts and smoke stacks that billow black diesel smoke when I "get on it."

We have a lot of people making the same transitions. All new hires in our position start off at the same salary. Every few years the percentage increases. It's usually common knowledge. Most people also go through the same promotions in our career path. No one ever gives a dollar figure, but people will speak in percentage increases or a general 5k or 10k raise to take a job or something. Mostly because we all usually get the same thing and it's kind of known. That's about as specific as it gets.

I'm not ashamed of my salary so I see no reason to not be candid or forthcoming if someone inquires about it. I'm 29 and make 87k per year. I'm not balling out of control, but I do okay.

I think a better word for it would be gauche.
