I hate answering about how much money I make!
A) I don't want to tell the truth because it's usually way more than how much the asker-person makes, and then things feel kind of awkward
B) I don't want to lie because they are friends
C) I don't want to say "None of your business" or "I'd rather not say" because it feels kind of rude or dodgy, or attracts just as much interest and attention anyway.
What do you guys say when people you know ask you that question?
I try to say, "it really depends, there's no set amount, sometimes it can be really bad, too,"
but if they keep asking, "But what's a GOOD night like, like, whats the MOST you've ever made in one shift," I'll answer honestly, "About 600 or 700"
and then it's that AWKWARDNESS! where they go, "Oh... Wow. Hmm." And then I try to explain it's really not like that all the time, and it's really not like a regular job, etc.
