What's with telling YEARLY salaries? (lemmy.zip)

I think this is mostly a US thing. Why use yearly salary? You're not paid once a year, are you? Most likely once a month. Referencing monthly salary makes much more sense.

"I'm making 50k". Great, now I have to guess - dollars? Monthly? Yearly? If yearly then what's the monthly paycheck? Net? Gross?

Not really. It's usually obvious from context. Unless you're trying to be an intentionally obtuse pedant?
