    it was just fine to not only start flipping thru paperwork in the managers office but to also look over employee payroll checks

    Hey so believe it or not but she was right; people should have the right to know what their coworkers get paid. Stop pretending it’s supposed to be secret.

      Fuck no. People have the right to keep their wages secret if they want. It is up to them to disclose that at their choice only. I certainly as their boss would not disclose the hours or wages someone gets without permission. Are you for real?

        I don’t like this weird culture of paying people different wages for the same jobs. That’s where I’m coming from.

        You’re allowing them to pay you a lot less than someone who just happens to be better at corporate bullshitting

          Sure- but it’s not something for you to be able to look at just because you want to. If I don’t want you to know something about me you don’t have the right to know.

          Bullshit. People get various wages because typically they have different skills and some are definitely more motivated or at a different point in their careers. The new hire that is not fully trained for their job, comes with no experience and has yet to master skills should get the same wages as the person that has been there for twenty years? That is mental.

        You’re a fucking moron for believing this. It is literally only advantageous to the owners and investors in everyone keeping their wages secret. Obviously the activity described by OP is pretty dumb but to the larger point everyone should openly discuss how much they earn, only detriment is showing how unequal and stagnant wages are.
