This theme was touched upon in another thread and I wanted to discuss it further.

ITA. I have no reason to lie online, just like I have no reason to lie IRL.

That is true. If my salary were not published online every year, I would be difficult to find if all you had was the number. On the other hand, there are not that many people who do what I do, and I have a fairly unusual first name, so if you had my first name and my job title you could find me.

No, I think by saying an occupation you can get a gist of how much it pays (MUCH of the time, not ALL). If you say I work at Mcdonalds flipping fries, you kind of know it pays minimum wage. That same person could say my salary is $50,000 and they know it would not fly.

Not me. I would rather have someone know my occupation than my salary.

Funny how a few days ago salaries and finances was so private but now the occupation is more private-lol!!

Okay, who put the curse on me? As I was walking to my Dermatologist appointment, my left shoe broke right in front of Barney's. (Merril sandals)
