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
