Bars and titties shouldnt count. I can't serve alcohol and have some deck neck showing.

:scratch: Doesn't seem like they addressed the real controversy, which is the claim that women in the SAME POSITION/FIELD don't earn as much as men in that SAME POSITION/FIELD.

You go boy and your eagle eyes. I do agree. Little detail statistics are lame.

Misleading article. More women go to college, and they get paid more than the average male their age who didnt go to college.

Atlanta, Ga., offered the best financial opportunity for these women, who took home 121 percent of the average wage for their peers
Haha, I find that funny becuase today I walked by some protest from some workers bitching about the Art Museum being "sexist" and not paying them as much as men.
However as for the subject of women and not getting equal pay. Guess what you guys get to do that men don't??? You guys get time off because you got knocked up and I've heard of some companies letting women off (even paid) for their "Time of the month". Basically bitches not only cost their men money they cost their company (probably ran by a man) money.

If I was a company and let women have maternity leave, I'd have them sign a paper saying their once their child is legal age to join the work force, they belong to me.
Or I can be kind like an insurance company. Sure you can have maternity leave and get paid, but when you come back your salary drops.
I think my dick is pregnant. Calling the boss right meow.

Funny you say that because larger companies, like mine are now required to give Men maternity leave also..:) I think it's a few weeks shorter than the woman but they get like a month or so off for it if they want it.

I got 2 months paid for both my boys.
In 2008 I was out most of the summer between paternity and vacation time.

Personally, I think there should be more guaranteed time off in this country.

Those numbers don't seem right (at least America's). Does that mean required by law paid time off? Even at my old shitty job I got paid time off on holidays and vacation time.

Yeah, those are the days off required by law in each country.

Gotcha. If that is the case then America has the only good numbers becuase it's not the government's business to mandate that a private business needs to give its workers paid time off (or unpaid time off).

Yeah, I know, this isn't the war room, but I'll comment. I do agree with you, to an extent. The problem I have with it is that the government is mandating everything else, including healthcare insurance. If people had some time off work to enjoy life and reduce stress, they'd be a little healthier, thus reducing the need for healthcare coverage. JMO. And yes, I know that many companies do give time off, and a decent amount of it, even though they aren't required to. However, since time off isn't required, a lot of companies don't give much paid time off. And those are usually the shittier jobs to begin with and ones where workers would benefit from time off even more. Ok, since this isn't the war room, I'll say no more on the subject.
