I don't know a good way for you to handle that. Really? I've never heard of such a prohibition. While disclosing your (or someone else's) salary may, under certain circumstances, be unethical or unwise or simply none of their business, it seems to me that it is my decision to make, not my employers. Does this prohibition extend to disclosing what other benefits you get? How about telling your spouse what you make? -- "A waist is a terrible thing to mind" - Dan Quayle at a Weight Watchers group ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chris Esposito | Internet: chrise@atc.boeing.com Boeing Advanced Technology Center | uucp: ...!uw-june!bcsaic!chrise
