| | SQL> delete from threads where title like '%salary%';
Honestly, if I read another thread about salary I am going to post a really angry response...something awful like "Oi, you. No !!" http://www.payscale.com/research/CH/...zerland/Salary
There are people that have jobs, people that live on the salary that those jobs pay. They can do it. You can do it. Stop boasting about 150K+ salaries, stop bemoaning <60K salaries. Salaries are market related and people in work do not starve.

Rollback!
Perhaps it's time to consider a ban on salary related questions? |

I could probably write that SQL statement, and support it going forward. What do you think is a reasonable amount to charge for this?

I don't know which is worse: the threads asking about salaries, or the threads complaining about the threads asking about salaries.

It's MySQL. If you don't do it, somebody else will and probably has.

It's the lack of searching and the dive right in and let somebody else do my work for me attitude that peeves me.
Sometimes I suspect bragging (is 250K enough....) Sometimes I suspect ignorance and laziness (I work in IT, doing a standard job in a bank that pays Market rates, is this enough , yeah I did search (feebly) and can't be arsed to Google, but hey there suckers, let me waste your time and not mine, after all, you should know how much I should earn and not me, you should do the diligence and trawl the internet for my specific circumstances not me.)
