If the pay was the same, would you rather get paid in bitcoins, fiat or a fixed percentage of both?
Also, would you be willing to sign up for a credit union that converted your bitcoins automatically by just giving your employer a direct deposit number?

As of the current real world usage,
I would have to get paid in fiat.
I would prefer to choose bitcoin, so I chose a % of each.

Bitcoin is too volatile and nearly everything is paid by fiat. I don't want to be charged when converting to fiat.

I'd like to get paid in fiat (for larger amount) until bitcoin becomes a stable currency. For smaller amount I don't see much harm to accept bitcoin.

20% btc/ 80% fiat reflecting avenues for use. Would be happy to change the ratio as more ways to spend btc emerge in time.

I find it odd that the results of this poll and the poll asking about a Bitcoin Credit Union are so vastly different when they are both basically the same. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=810747.0If your company is not willing to pay you in bitcoins (you can probably count on your hand how many will), a Credit Union direct deposit is the easiest way to achieve that.

I'd prefer to be paid in bitcoins.
I could then immediately convert some of the bitcoins to fiat myself if I found that I still needed to use some fiat. At least that way, I'd be in control of what the percentage was that was converted to fiat with every payment received.

I agree, and i'll take it a bit further. I would rather be paid in bitcoins, and never had to convert to fiat, because fiat has been eradicated and the world uses cryptocurrency technologies to facilitate monetary transactions.

Honestly I selected % of both. You can't go "full retard" on getting paid in all Bitcoin at this juncture, not with the wild price swings of late. Especially if you have mortgage, rent, bills, food, family, living expenses to pay off each month.
Until mass adoption, development, and technology (I know this is slowly happening and is underway) take off and BTC price stabilizes to an acceptable level, then you can't afford to gamble your livelihood while we're still in the "Innovation/early adopter" phase.

I would definitely choose Bitcoin. Not only because I am a firm believer in it and its future, but because I could exchange what I needed to live as soon as I go it, and hold on to the rest of it, and trade. So not only will I get my needs met, but the thrill and bonus that trading alone and holding alone gives as well.

Definitely would rather get paid in bitcoin as long as i could pay rent and bill immediately to make sure the price didnt drop. What would sweeten the deal would be more discounts for using bitcoin like gyft provide.
