Curiosity

[lnr]

A friend of mine recently wondered why they weren't earning 30K in programming, when it seemed like most of their friends were. So I'm curious as to what various people on my friends-list do. If you're not currently working but have done in the past feel free to fill this in with your most recent job in mind. If you don't want to reveal who you are, or if you don't have a livejournal, I'd still be interested in answers as comments instead.

NB Salary in UK pounds please, sorry for not making that clear in the question.

I note that people with higher salaries prefer to keep quiet, or at least anonymous, about it here. Is this fear of jealousy, a desire not to be seen as bragging, embarrasment of riches, or what?

30-40K in UK pounds

7-8 years, I think by now...

Mostly.

Too much given that I read news half the time.

... and given that my real name is easily deduced from my LJ username, I think you know why I'm not putting it on this for Google to find. I'll bet LNR knows who I am anyway.

a) google respects robots.txt so won't be archiving my entries anyway. (Block Robots/Spiders from indexing your journal in personal info settings)

b) You could be quite a lot of people actually from that info.
