That said, it would interesting to see what the actual numbers are, although I'm sure it will vary a lot between industries and jobs and other factors. Anecdotally it sounds correct but that could just be true for some trait of my social circle, or some other bias about mentioning pay or something. Or just that people tend to be more likely to change jobs when they are underpaid, so the pay jumps from changing jobs seem bigger since the job they're changing to will be closer to the market, whereas well paid employees will stick around and maybe not notice the gradual pay increases as much.
Reminds me of how my parents wouldn’t let me watch pokémon after school because they wanted me to do my homework first: so I’d go to my room and take a nap for an hour and tell them I’d done it. Then I was well rested to get up again after they’d gone to sleep and watch adult swim or similar on cartoon network 😂.
I guess some restricted/supervised access to platforms thier friends are on might be a better approach than an all out ban, but idk I don’t have kids lol
