If they aren't, you can always chuck them.
If it happens too often, you might try grilling the chef rather than the steak.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Would you work for a BitCoin Salary?
Think about it, both sides of the transaction are anonymous. So you would keep your whole earned paycheck, nothing taken out for taxes.

Yes, I would. And then convert half of it to normal cash because that's what is accepted here.
You'd still have to pay taxes, and they could simply ask the employer how much he/she is paying. As for being anonymous; you're part of a public blockchain.

Just like a cash business. You'd have to declare your earnings for tax purposes.

- Most local supermarkets don't accept payment in BitCoin, so at some stage you are going to have to convert your BitCoin into local currency. This can be traced.
- The Infernal Revenue Service (of whatever country) has quite sophisticated models concerning the costs of living, etc. If it comes to their notice that you are living at a certain standard and have no visible income, they are bound to get interested.
- The penalties for tax evasion are usually quite severe. I have my doubts about the quality of the food in the local prisons, and I look terrible in uniform (any uniform!)
If none of the above apply to you - go ahead!

In the US large cash transactions for many businesses must be reported to the US Federal government.
Those are triggers that can not only trigger internal revenue investigations but can also trigger criminal investigations (drugs, gangs, etc.)

If it's above board why cant they convert it to local $ and pay you in that?
Same as if being paid by an overseas company.
Is it really salary, or contact?
If it's the latter then you can deal with the tax differently - still have to pay but for instance can take out expenses and so pay less tax. (Tax evasion is illegal, tax avoidance isn't.)

How do you figure? Your employer will take taxes out, assuming you're not a contractor.
Anonymity doesn't change anything here. The government will still want their part, and you still need to file your taxes.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.
