    Wage disparity

    But that's the point - women are not getting paid less now. Mind you; I would wager that there are many instances where if a woman and man are say; 25 years old, identical in experience and qualifications applying for the same job, the guy might get it because he is less likely to be taking...

    Wage disparity

    Maybe the chicks are smarter, and get fed-up with all the BS that goes with being in Politics long before the blokes do, and say: "to hell with these BS artists; I'm outta here!" ;)

    Wage disparity

    It's a non-issue these days. Very few positions would have an obvious disparity between men and women and more; hence the BS and wildly inaccurate claim with that ABS stat.. I can't think of one (forget sport and other non-job careers - performers and athletes are not "jobs" as such, and are...

    Wage disparity

We are turning into a race of zombies. The banter about this topic this morning went...

    Wage disparity

    Using my two career industries as a guide; there is absolutely no difference in pay rates for either gender. In fact; if I were back in the golf industry again (god I wish I was - mechanics is cr@p and we'll have noone before too long; golf is a doodle com pared to this shidd) running...

    Wage disparity

    Interesting segment on ABC radio news this morning relating to latest ABS stats that men are earning more than women, and the gap is widening... Lots of hand-wringing and "How can this be?!" etc. The stat only applies to full-time positions, apparently. I would venture to say that over the...
