It's true that not talking about salary is something that can really hold people back when they go to negotiate their own salary. And I don't see why anyone would be upset with an anonymous poll. Last year we did have a kerfuffle of some type when I made a poll about whether or not it was ok to talk about your salary. Bragging about it on the internet is a little pathetic, IMO. Also any time we bring up salary, the same few people always make comments about how comfortable they are, which is of course pretty tacky. But nothing wrong with an anonymous survey, and it paints an economic picture of VJers.

Why is the assumption being made that anyone's upset? Dev made a comment...nothing more, nothing less. Steven posted 3 topics about money, so imo it was a reasonable question & comment.

I'm certainly not upset :no: Don't have a gun to my head either :lol:

Why all the $$ questions? Didn't your parents teach asking salaries/speaking about $ is rude? ;)

:thumbs:

I think she was being sarcastic, Lisa. Is someone standing over your screen right now pointing a gun at you?

I didn't think she was, turns out she wasn't....

Pointing a gun at me? what you getting at? My post isn't welcome unless I agree? wow!

sanita stays home...and works more there than me...she takes care of the hiome..takes a brooom and sweep the yard..and feed her many animal friends and birds friends..daily and in the evening..also, chases hawks and cats they venture to close

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

And in return, she garnishes all your wages, right?

I never said I was upset. See that winking smilie? Means something ya know...

IMO, I thought there was too many $ polls, so I asked. I also think it's tacky. How that makes me 'upset' I dunno, cuz in my world, I certainly am not.

because the other poll doesn't account for people who don't work...

and if someone's spouse also posts on VJ, it makes no sense to answer both/either.

I answered for myself in the first poll, and then for my spouse in this one, who doesn't post here. But maybe I'm looking at it too simplistically. :unsure:
