Philoye, Amusing. :)
But there is a big difference here. Recruiters offer their services to coders (and potential employers). So I think transparency is fair there. In that sense, it's somewhat similar to speaking with a mortgage broker, who will act as a middle man and find you the best loan. I'm happy to explain what I earn to an employer, or a recruiter, and to go through it and justify it. This is a somewhat moot point, as they have to find out anyway. I think it'd be *terrific* if I saw a similar transparency from a recruter. And note, this doesn't mean Ash has to explain things en masse to the group. I'd just think it'd be a reform of sorts if recruiters began be explaining how they take their cut, as middle men often do. It'd be a factor for me when deciding to deal with one.
