What kind of asshole looks at a person's finances? It's one thing if it's a scammer but you don't do that to your "friends" - period.

do you think your friend opened him/her self up to breach of privacy???

too much crying in this thread.

welcome to reality where bankers are snoopy, cops get bribed by drug dealers, servers steal "pooled" tips, and your neighbor computer nerd knows everything you watch at 11pm.

Yep. Cash is king, and most people don't mind being a complete fucking piece of shit when it comes to it. Especially in this city.
If the person who was doing it was a good friend of mine, and we were razzing each other about being poor I probably wouldn't care. If it was someone who wasn't an "I can talk about anything" kind of friend, I'd have them eating their phone instead of their dinner.

A nosy bored loser with the means to? But yeah if it was a close friend I wouldn't care, in fact I have a friend who did that to me I was like :rukidding: at first but was then like meh

I wouldn't be cool with even my best friend looking that shit up, and I've known him since kindergarten. Would you be cool if they had access to your phone and all your texts and emails too? Maybe some friends do have an open book relationship where anything goes, but unless you've gotten consent from them it's kind of a dick move.

As far as I'm concerned, it's like one of your friends coming over and opening your mail. I'm pretty surprised some of you would let it slide.

I wouldn't want to be friends with people that would purposely invade my privacy. They're the same fuckers that would blab details to anyone that'll listen their gossip. This isn't high school, anymore. I hope they all get fired.

This is as if your friend pick locks your house, rummage through your bedroom, and openly talks about your dirty laundry over dinner. Twice.

Absolutely unethical. It's against work policy.

I'll be honest, I've secretly looked up some people on the public sector website to see how much they make just cause of curiosity, but I would never bring it up to them nor question about it. I would just pretend I don't know and be butthurt why they make so much more than me. Lol

But yeah, that's a public website. Complete different from looking into someone's bank account and question their spending... Wtf

That's a whole different matter altogether. AFAIK, public servants with salaries greater than $100k are required to have their compensations declared and made available to the public. The same goes for any of our medical practitioners -- if I want to find out, I can see exactly how much my GP has been paid by the government; I can see how much my prof at university made (if they meet the required salary level). It's a matter of public policy and transparency. It's a form of check and balance built into the system (even though it doesn't really work).

But abusing work privileges to gain access to private and confidential information is a completely different matter.

75k

All my bosses are on it haha. It's fun to check every now and then especially when there's some people I know of who flat out lie saying they make 100k+ a year. Look them up and they don't even show on the list haha


public sector salaries

exactly my thought.... i mean really? i think curiosity is just human nature... it is talking about it/sharing it... that is where the shit goes down hill...
