My wife railed against this crap for years… Advantage was that if management continued their idiotic games, she was able to walk away, because my job was pretty stable in those early days.. There were some real nasty bastard out there, may they all rot in hell! Looking back, all of them failed, collapsed… Left a lot of bitter women, other employees in their wake.. Walk away, do not let them get away with it.. And some women managers were just as bad, hard line, crap, no place for it, no way to treat people..

GOP State Sen: Women Paid Less Because Men Care More About Money
by Mediaite Staff | 11:43 am, April 10th, 2012

A lot of time and energy has gone into figuring out why there’s a big old pay gap between men and women. Is it just simple unfairness? Is pay inequity the result of some pre-existing power structure in the business world? Lots of theories are out there, many worthy of consideration.

Yet despite this complex debate, noted gender equality expert Wisconsin State Senator Glenn Grothman says the root of pay inequity is quite simple: Women don’t care about making money. Of course! It was staring us in the face!

In an interview with The Daily Beast, Grothman argued that women care less about money because they’re more interested in having kids than men are (which, you’d think, would make financial solvency more of a concern but sure, whatever).

And the idea that women are discriminated against? Pshaw:

“You could argue that money is more important for men. I think a guy in their first job, maybe because they expect to be breadwinner someday, may be a little more money-conscious. To attribute everything to so-called bias in the workplace is just not true.”

Sure. Because most women show up to work just for fun. In fact, don’t even bother paying us — we’re here just for kicks.
