Yes, but the people you talk to have to do the same then.

I was talking to some coworkers a while back and one of them whined that he earned so little. I told exactly what I got and he just goes "oh, then I don't earn the least" and never talks about his salary again.

Like... At least tell me what you get!?

Btw. no one else said anything about their salary so I got exactly zero information out of that interaction.

This is easy. Thank him for his advice that helped you get “a big raise,” then work him.

Your coworker is an ass.

That definitely means you earn the least.

[–] reptar@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

(achshually) It only means you earn less than him.

Okay, fair. I got 1 bit of information. 😞

Did you ask them?

At that point I just didn't want to anymore. It's also been a few years and now I have colleagues with whom I regularly talk about our salaries.
