[Soggy in NOLA]

Every company I have ever worked for had a policy against discussing compensation.... My parents taught me that you don't discuss your pay with anyone other than your significant other.

Well, for me, it isn't a thing one way or another. This sort of shenanigans hasn't been an issue in my life.

Hardly,its sound advice,your pay is between the employer and employee period.I tell all new hires this and mean it.People are petty,talking about your pay with coworkers always cause problems always,it a good way to get fired.

Employers don't like employees discussing pay, it might make the employees realize their employer is a dick.

Is there anything more tiresome than some jackass talking about how much money he makes, or, for that matter, doesn't make?

To you, maybe, but trying to fire employees for discussing their pay is idiotic.

I have seen hourly people blubber over 10 cent an hour difference in pay,it causes needless problems.

You've obviously never had to manage anything.. if you had, you'd understand. You go on about an employer being a "dick". Well, let me tell you... employees can be dicks a well. I've managed people that were essentially children.. with their constant complaining about everything.

Who says everything has to be easy? Success requires a fair amount of hard work.. there's no way around it. The "Easy" button only exists on TV.

We have the capacity for everyone to live easy lives, I don't buy into the narrative of "hard work" billions work hard and will never get close to being a capitalist, which is the way most people define success..
