      One Sunday, some former coworkers & I were bored, talking about salaries on the internal social network instance. A spreadsheet was created.

      we put our salaries in the sheet, realized that it was created on a public to the world spreadsheet, so I copied it to internal.

      I then put a form on it and posted the link to the form and the spreadsheet on my internal social network account. It took off like wildfire

      It got reshared all over the place. People started adding pivot tables that did spreadsheet magic that highlighted not great things re: pay.

      I did some general housekeeping stuff to the sheet (normalizing the gender field where it could be, exchange rate stuff, that sort of thing)

      More reshares. More people adding pay. It became a thing.

      I was invited to talk to my manager on Mon or Tues. Higher up people weren't happy. She wasn't happy. Why did I do it?

      "Don't you know what could happen?" Nothing. It's illegal to retaliate against employees for sharing salaries. "Wellll.... ... ..."

      Meeting ended. Sheet kept going. People were thanking me for it. They were also sending me peer bonuses.

      here's how peer bonuses work @ former co: If you did something good, someone peer bonuses you, you get $150 net in your next paycheck.

      An important thing I learned during that time: peer bonuses are rewarded at managers discretion. My manager was rejecting all of them.

          Wasn't sure if this would be good for the company. Wanted to see what the outcome was. Mind you once a PB is rejected, that can't be undone.

          Meanwhile, one of the other people involved, a white dude (good friend I won't name, he can name himself if he wants), was also getting PBs.

          A smattering of people knew what was going on. Backchannels being what they are at former co. (lol IRC #yallknowwhoyouare), it got around.

          Rejecting PBs was so unheard of, ppl didn't know it was possible. There was outrage when they found out. Shock that I wasn't talking abt it.

          Most people agreed that it was A Good Thing. PBs kept rolling in. Rejections kept rolling out.

          One PB eventually got approved. Way after everything died down. Because the person worded it in a way that was vary vague.

          @EricaJoy Holy crap. This sounds like explicit retaliation, and, thus, illegal, no? (I just want to understand)
