 | hey you shop at tesco dont ya. 
 well, i was on the bbc again today,  first story i see
 saying that women are being paid less than men.
 
 i was shocked and so upset that women were being paid less
 for doing the same work. Gender pay gap and all that, so
 terrible.
 
 I read the page waiting for the other side of the story. but
 there wasn't one.
 
 but i picked out that it was 'not' actually to do with
 sex/gender after all
 ,even though the 'BBC was pushing so hard through the whole
 story' to the point i thought i might have to have a sex
 change to go to be respected and go to heaven.
 
 However, it was actually to do with 'store workers' vs
 'warehouse workers.'
 
 more women work in store, and more men work in the ware
 house.
 
 warehouse workers load heavier weights drive machines and so
 forth i presume.   store workers are lighter work but deal
 with customers and so the job is different. The pay is
 different, the shifts are different. and likely just as
 difficult at times for both jobs. but they are different
 
 Anyway the other thing is Men also work in the store and
 women also work in the warehouse.  so it was wrong of the
 bbc to push gender pay gap.
 its a different job 'pay gap'
 
 the main point of my post is this. They even have a video
 one sided!  Not mentioning the poor men who get paid less
 'in store' too.
 
 The women says its not the work it is that it is the VALUE
 to the company, we are a team.never mind the blisters on the
 fingers and pulled muscles in the warehouse. we are all in
 it together so give the people who sit at the cash machine
 the same wage.
 
 is this communism?

 | yes that example seems illogical as they are not comparable jobs at all. I think a gender pay gap does exist but the
 argument isn't really helped by stuff like you pointed out

 | yes the VALUE thing is a bad argument, if they wanted to use that argument I think they would still loose, as good
 warehouse workers are of primary importance to tescos. You
 could just have automated checkouts in tescos really
