I guess it's just our generation. I was raised with the idea that talking about your salary with friends is tacky. I know this doesn't mention anything about posting it online for all to see, so I'll have to check on it.

That is what rich people teach their kids because they don't want the "poorer" people to feel embarassed even though its pretty fucking obvious anyway so why hide it? just like everything else in society
the elephant on the table type thing
hey guys lets not talk about really important things like money,death and social issues because god, that's just akward

MY PARENTS WEREN'T RICH AND THAT'S WHAT THEY TAUGHT ME

LISTEN PEOPLE ITS JUST CLASSY NOT TO TALK ABOUT SALARIES BECAUSE IT MAKES MANY PEOPLE UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN YOU DO. IF IT DOESN'T MAKE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE, THAT'S SUPER, BUT IT IS STILL CONSIDERED IMPOLITE AND YOU'RE COMING OFF AS A JERK.

MY AUNT HAS NO PROBLEM TALKING ABOUT HER MENOPAUSE WHEN SHE'S DRUNK AT A WEDDING, BUT IT'S UNAPPRECIATED AND RUDE TO A LOT OF PEOPLE.

THERE'S A GUY I WORK WITH WHO DESCRIBED IN DETAIL HOW HE CAN PUT ONE OF THESE NEW SMALL VIDEO DIGITAL CAMERAS ON HIS SHOE AND LOOK UP GIRLS DRESSES IN PUBLIC, AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS AN INGENIOUS USE OF TECHNOLOGY IT WAS STILL CRASS.

IS THERE VALID DATA THAT CAN BE SHARED TALKING ABOUT HOW MUCH MONEY PEOPLE MAKE? SURE! AND IN SOME CASES TALKING ABOUT SALARIES HAS ITS TIME AND PLACE, JUST LIKE TALKING ABOUT BEING A PERVERT OR MENOPAUSE HAS ITS PLACE. ADVERTISING YOUR WAGE WITH NO PROMPTING IS LIKE ULTRA-TACKY, BECAUSE THERE IS RARELY A CONTEXT FOR IT.

JUST SAYIN', RAGING AGAINST SOCIETAL NORMS IS SUPER AND EVERYTHING WHEN IT HAS A PURPOSE, BUT YOU WILL LEARN IN TIME THAT A LOT OF THINGS PEOPLE TERM "MANNERS" AND "CLASSINESS" EXIST BECAUSE THEY ARE GOOD GUIDELINES TO KEEP YOU FROM LOOKING LIKE AN ASSHOLE l

Canadian RNs would make more if we let the rules of supply vs. demand determine our starting wage. The only reason that most of us are unionized is because back in the day, it was the only way to ensure decent wages for a female dominated profession.

hahah yeah right.

There would be tons of competition from the nurses the union currently wont recognize.
