In the workplace, discussing "salary" with colleagues is regarded as a major taboo. A netizen shared his experience, unexpectedly discovering that his supervisor's salary was vastly different from his own, which left him feeling dissatisfied and ultimately led him to choose to resign. However, he also felt anxious about joining a new company, worrying about how to evade questions about salary if colleagues asked. This netizen posted on a discussion platform, mentioning that in his previous job, his supervisor often delegated troublesome tasks to him and shirked responsibility when problems arose. One day, he was shocked to learn that the supervisor's salary not only included a year-end bonus but also an additional two months' salary bonus, which made him feel unbalanced and thus decided to look for a new job. Although he has already found a new job, he still worries about the same issue and is concerned that colleagues might judge him based on salary differences. He asked online: "How should I evade when colleagues ask about salary?" After posting, many experienced individuals provided responses, such as: "Tell them you have a confidentiality agreement and can't disclose it." "You can say 'my salary is about the same as yours' to brush them off." "I usually just disclose the minimum salary." "If it's inconvenient to say, you can respond directly or let them ask the boss."
