I’m actually a little sad about this one. Yes, the name of this store was really off-putting, it kept me from stepping foot in there for ages. But on the other hand, it was a fairly reliable source for plus-size office appropriate-stuff that wasn’t too expensive, and it was nice being able to find clothes in a store

Correct!  If “corporations are people” then we should run with that.

There has been so much data and statistical evidence on the gender pay gap. In fact, even when every possible factor has been controlled for - experience, education, skills, working hours, etc. - a pay gap between men and women still exists. The only thing left is discrimination. Maybe before making a blanket

I cannot understand the relevance of an employer knowing my salary history.

I’m starting to believe that being called “manly” isn’t much of a compliment any more.

There are some cities and states that have outlawed pay history which is definitely also a step in the right direction. When companies go off of salary history, they are basically just leap frogging off any previous pay discrimination. I’ve also been told there isn’t much flexibility for salary when I’ve tried to

But we do understand the pay gap.

Why yes. Many fine people are saying there are good arguments on both sides. The best people.

This is good. Warren is still far ahead in first place, to me, but I can see Kamala as a strong second if she keeps it up with the policy proposals.

My salary history is between me and the IRS. I’m tired of giving a salary range for my *desired* position in lieu of employers wanting to know what I made in my *previous* positions.

Why the hell not?

Lots of people have 30 minute lunch breaks - for us, time is an issue. 

If only it worked that way. Everything should be completely organized for the service. It’s called mise en placé, literally ‘everything in place’. When you walk into work it’s go go go. You are thawing seafood, butchering meat, cleaning veg. And then you have the deliveries. You aren’t allowed to have anything on

I think part of the time savings comes from the customer end- they will spend less time looking at a giant menu. The last time I went through a drive through (White Castle), I was blown away at how complex it was. Took me a few minutes to decide.

How about getting rid of those stupid digital display “menus” where you need to wait for the screen to change 5 times before you see what you want to order.

The only time frame they care about is from the moment the order is placed to the moment it’s completed/delivered and removed from the order queue.

I can’t see how Jack’s is supposed to get any faster since they went to a made-to-order-esque model.

It’s amazing how many magically telepathic scientists we suddenly have in here, since none of them coughed up $40 for the actual study and therefore don’t actually know what’s in it. And yet, they’re POSITIVE it was done wrong. Hmm!!

A lot of commenters here seem to think the study must have been done improperly.  I guess it’s easier to assume that than admit that misogyny and sexism is a serious and pervasive problem in this country with real world consequences.

As a human male who drinks beer and has other human acquaintances who drink beer I have come up with a much more rational thought about the humans pictured as part of this study. The humans pictured in this study do not drink beer and/or do not drink to excess. No one holds a beer like that unless it’s their very
