My dad showed me his offer from 1998 from 'Coopers and Lybrand' (now PWC) for an SAP Consultant position. 100k + 5k bonus. I received the same number this year for 'Salesforce'. Like father like son?

That's crazy! I see it the same way @OP! That's a beautiful thanksgiving weekend connection! Thanks for sharing!

My Dad worked for KPMG in the late 90s and also an even better salary and benefits package than I do now. He said there wasn't as much competition either. Also just throwing it in there that he was the first of his family to get a white collar job.

PWC1, on the contrary, it's just mind baffling that salaries haven't changed that much. I saw the written offer from 1998. With food prices and house prices going up, it's just scary that these companies have kept salaries the same

We used to be proud of success. Now we act like coming from a family of success is a crime. Which begs the question, why even try to be successful if all you're going to do is damn your children to a lifetime of listening to petty, jealous bitches? You also don't know OPs circumstances. Perhaps his dad came from nothing and worked his ass off against the system and succeeded. That's the story you should be proud of but instead you chastise OP for it. Idiocy.

A2 - my Dad came from Pakistan. He worked 3 jobs during undergrad including full time at McDonalds and full time at a gas station. He changed universities 3-4 times (back and forth between community college and regular 4 year schools).

Not sure how that makes him privileged. It just means he wasn't lazy.

A2 you privileged snot. Who are you to sit on your smart phone and whine about your circumstance? It's offensive to those who work hard and to your own parentage.
