How to discuss wage with coworkers?
I am all for discussing wage with coworkers, but I'm unsure the best way to bring it up (office setting) I once straight up asked someone out of the blue if they're comfortable discussing wages and they said no and wouldn't engage any further, so I think I might not want to do it that way again

The only thing I can think of that I could say is that one of the locations is really close to me lmao.
