    Had a Civil Service job with a union. Everyone knew exactly what everyone else was making and nobody cared.

      I’m sure the employers who couldn’t scam their employees cared.

      They are the ones that made sharing your wage a taboo.

      • It’s such a weird taboo you guys got. In Norway tax returns are public. Nothing is stopping you from seeing how much your colleagues, neighbours or whatever made the previous year.

          That may be the biggest piece of culture shock I can imagine. Not even the salary, the idea that any citizen could locate any politician or actor’s address is mind boggling.
