This. If it was real, companies would employ only women.

They never can explain why companies, who are more than happy to outsource to overseas because of cheaper labor costs, couldn’t simply hire more women since they are supposedly paid less than men.

To be fair, there is one, but it’s also linked to a ton of other gaps that proponents of this nonsense never bother to discuss, like the massive occupational fatality/permanent injury/maiming gap, or the life expectancy gap, or the alimony gap, yada yada yada. The fact that one job pays more than another does not in…

Can we let the gender pay gap myth die already

My boy/girl twins are both under 5 and get exactly the same allowance amount: $0

But just imagine, he’ll solve racism by having all of America attend a two-day training program at every Starbuck’s location!

When I started my first management job, my dad told me to keep a work diary and it was so helpful. It made self evaluations much easier, as well resume updates. It has also been very helpful just to go back and see my growth, and be able to put things in perspective more- it’s a record of what worked and what didn’t.

More fucking horseshit.

Phillips did not “enter the space between them” - he explicitly said on CBS News that he walked into the high school group to prevent them from harassing the poor innocent black protesters. The fact that those black protesters were using vile, homophobic, racist language is downplayed by you,…

I knew I was doing it wrong...

Your premise assumes that the private sector would replicate all of the functions that the government currently performs.

I was thinking strictly from the retirement savings perspective. Saving for the short term like in your example is a whole different ballgame and completely depends on your risk tolerance (ex are you ok with having to wait 8 years to buy that house if the market tanks or would you rather stick to conservative…

Disagree.

I know I’m right when the number of stars on my comment is greater than the number of stars on the counterpoint reply to my comment.

I’m actually going to be the contrarian for once:

Eh, special operations guys kinda do whatever the fuck they feel like, especially in country. The fact that 1) none of these guys have beards, and 2) they’re wearing regular issue gear, makes me think that this is a stateside Airsoft team in a staged photo-op until I hear otherwise.
