yes. there was this study where they used one CV with a couple of names and send them to professors, and asked them to judge them on their competency for lab manager, and what salary they should get. Women always got the lower wage, and were more likely to not be recommended for the position. And it was the exact same…

I bet that guy was a peach to work with, even before all this. I’m sure when his female coworkers read his memo they thought, “Of course it’s written by that *******.”

But you see, this is scientific fact that women and men have different brain functions, which is why I posit that any man can easily learn and surpass their female counterparts in the art of fellatio. Evolutionarily speaking, we are very good at sucking our dicks.

In HR/Finance for a nonprofit, and what happened to us is the hiring managers were generally offering male candidates $1k-3k more than the low of the salary range, while we were offering women the low, or a $500-1,000 bump. Then, the men were more likely to negotiate, and were sometimes rewarded another bump.

To all the commenters over on giz: see this is why you can’t be writing shit like this at work. Whether you agree with what he said or not, it’s a liability for the company.

I want someone in HR to explain to me why you dole out more money to men just because they ask for it. WHY? Do they cast a spell on you or what?

That is the most awful, soul-crushing, gut-wrenching silver lining ever.

I’ve read articles about sex-trafficking in which they talk about women who have been released from houses where they had been lured and kept captive for months and/or years. Why did the traffickers let them go alive? Because they knew nothing would happen. It’s across a national border. The girls have been strung…

Trafficking happens. But it’s only news when it happens to a white English girl. Does anyone here know the movie Lilja 4-ever? Very good movie, but it tore a hole in my soul. Because when you watch it you know this happens. And you know the abusers get away with it and nobody cares about the victims, because they are…

The Good News: Yes, this is a kidnapping committed by one, or perhaps a couple, disturbed but incompetent individuals and not a secret organization of super-sex-traffickers.

The Bad News: Sexual trafficking is still committed all around the world. It’s done by pimps who isolate, abuse, and manipulate vulnerable young…

In other words, King is only a title you can get through birthright and queen is short for two different things, one by birthright and one by marriage?

It seems weird to me that someone who is a member of the monarchy would not understand how monarchies work.

The entirety of the alt right is white mediocrity having a temper tantrum because white mediocrity is not a 100% guarantee of success anymore. The 5% improvement is too much.

How does one “win” an argument? Are there medals? Trophies?

I hate to say it again, but this is exactly why I despise Bernie voters and the 53% of white women who either threw their votes away or turned their backs on competence and fairness because of some bullshzt emails (are you still curious about them? do you think they’re out there somewhere spilling state secrets?) and…

First of all, considering that you’ve never been anything but rude when you replied I have every right to dismiss your dumb ass as your disingenuous idiocy doesn’t really add to the conversation but ignoring you seems to have turned you into some sort of fucking stalker who decides to follow people who don’t wish to…

Washington Post, August 2016

So, essentially, Trump/Sessions/Bannon, et. al want “minorities” and the immigrants already here in low-paying and menial jobs.

True, but Kennedy is eyeing retirement and RBG is up there in years. Gorsuch has so far proven he’s walking the conservative line, maybe more than Thomas. If Trump gets more SCOTUS picks then Jim Crow is going to be on its way at a rapid pace.
