It would be amazing if people would be more open about sharing their salaries - but sadly it's just something that is sometimes better left unsaid. I know I make more than my father in law, but he doesn't need to know that. I know that I have coworkers that I somewhat oversee, and they may be underpaid for their actual skill sets. But should they know what I make - probably not as to avoid jealousy.

If only we could all just be open about it. (and of course this all coming from someone hiding behind an anonymous account...)
