Sorry, I'm not even sure I'm comfortable with my accountant knowing
what my salary is.

And salary ranges vary wildly even within very close geographic regions
-- as an example, I work in NYC. Long Island, which is less than 30
miles from NYC has significantly lower salary ranges for people with
the same level of experience.

OCP happened to be irrelevant for the job I'm in now. College degree
was critical (just that I had one, not what the degree was in)
