Not to mention that breaking into 6 figures isn't that much any more: taxes go up, gas goes up, hopefully starting salaries for in-demand fields go up.Maybe most of the people watching this post are rolling in it 🙂
However, this small survey doesn't really agree with your comment:

The same site also has some Canadian salaries ... they are even further from the 6-figure salaries that amysecker finds commonplace.

If you take into account that this particular title has a specific "paygrade" in mind, no - that particular title doesn't much break into the 100's. On the other hand, you might care to check out the scale for Senior Software engineers/designers, etc.... you get a much different picture, which does break into the 100's fairly often.

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?
