Most people say you should never talk about how much you make with colleagues. I think that's wrong. At my last office, a few of us started discussing our pay over lunch. We found out that two people doing the same role had very different salaries. One was making way less for no clear reason. We decided to talk to our boss together about it. He listened and adjusted the pay to be fair. Now, I believe hiding pay only lets unfairness continue.
I was having people over and they kept admiring how smooth my table felt. It hit me that a good finish isn't just about looks, it's about the feel too.
