Why Do People Have Issues Discussing Their Salaries? by braine(m): 11:57am On Oct 15, 2014
I was talking to a guy today and I directly asked for his salary but he declined asking "why do you want to know?" Is it because of the fear of being sized up or its generally a taboo?? undecided

If you know my salary, you will always want to borrow money from me.....
And If I say no.... You'll go about saying I'm selfish / stingy.

I read a book : The Rules at Work by Richard Templar and learnt that one of the ways to avoid making
yourself unhappy at your place of work is to stop discussing your salary among your colleagues. smiley
