Clearly we differ on how we feel about approaching people. I’d rather get a simple message. When people have to write things they tend to think more about what they want to say. And what you’re describing about the fly on the wall is sti

That’s happens and the boss also has the power to fix it. It’s part of that whole responsibility thing. If a majority of a bosses employees are defrauding them, then it sounds like they aren’t good at hiring. If it’s a minority then it’s

Money market interest income is taxed as income. So replying to the commenter to use money market accounts over savings, there isn’t a big difference. People go with what’s easiest and convenient when rates aren’t significantly different.
