The IRS and my local taxing authorities know my AGI; along with a few select lenders, they are all that need to know. As for my profession, I love the suspense of you not knowing who I really am. For all you know, I could be the guy signing the checks that have kept your airline afloat for the last 3 + years. I will say I regularly deal with 10 digit numbers (and that is before the decimal and we are not talking about telephone numbers).
You, my friend, have the benefit of working under contract for a publicly traded company. As such, your compensation information is public knowledge. The option, of course, is not to be represented by a union if you wish to keep your salary confidential.
