If your current pay level is x+7, divide it by x and multiply times 100, then subtract 100.
Bruh, I'm trying to just enjoy myself for a few minutes before I leave work, not do calculus.

A little less than 4 times what I made coming out of school in 2010.
ETA: if we're using percentages, 370% more than my starting salary.

Are you comparing responses in here to the ones in the starting salary thread a few days ago?
Nice try.
Nice try.

Who cares if some random person on TD knows how much money you make

Guess I missed that thread.
I have to say, the people with the biggest gains must have started at lower income levels for their entry jobs, or switched to more lucrative fields.
Making 4 times what I started at would put me in the top 2% of earners.

Not everyone is random to some posters.

168% of my original base salary. Maybe I need a raise.

It wasn't meant as a knock or anything. Just kind of thinking out loud.

Or the much easier way is to do
(Current Pay - Original Pay) / Original Pay

You're right, but I guess it's not a big deal to me either way. If my friends really want to know how much I make, I would tell them. I would think it was weird though.

You left out a step to get to the percentage.
Regardless, I wouldn't classify your way as "much" easier. They are literally the same steps, I just did the subtraction after dividing.
ETA: OT sucks at math apparently.
