Thanks for engaging with my vowels thread. It received much more traction than I was expecting. Now, I’m going to kick it up a notch by talking stoking a bit of workplace politics.
Do you know how much the person you’re sitting closest to is earning? I accidentally saw my superior’s payslip, so I do. I’m not sure where this thread will go, but it’s the journey!
Not sitting nearest (don’t have the privilege of sitting at a desk), but yes, I know how much my colleagues earn, as they earn the same as me (for another week or so)
No. And one part of me is glad, although another part of me thinks we should follow the Scandanavian countries that make tax returns a matter of public record and just crack this whole taboo of discussing salaries once and for all.
Not off the top of my head, but I work in the finance department and have access to everyone in the company’s salary info. It’s one of those things that you think will be interesting until 15 minutes into your first day, when you realise it isn’t interesting at all.
