Ah the "my mum is a woman" argume.... Sorry I am the lamest troll ever, I can't keep this up, lest I puke. The road to hell is paved with Male feminists, men don't like male feminists, and not because we see them as traitors to our sex, but because they are sneaky and manipulative. It's no surprise that 90% of the sexual assault allegations of late are against prominent Male feminist types. The gender caused pay gap is a myth busted by any multi varied analysis of data, it does not exist.
Tesco are being sued for 4 billion or some mad **** because shop floor women don't get paid the same as the blokes in the warehouse. unbelievable!
Well there's 2 minutes I'm never getting back! You don't have to be a male ally or some other ****ing ridiculous label to stand up and protect women from bullying. It's about having respect for each other and looking out for those who can't stand up for themselves, whether they're men or women.
If they're doing the same job they should be paid the same wage. If its true I hope Tescos get taken to the cleaners. Agreeing with that argument doesn't make me a feminist. Its just plain fairness
If you believe working at a till and stacking shelves in an air conditioned store floor is the same as working in a freezing warehouse driving fork trucks (that you need a ticket for) and loading and unloading trucks is the same work, you are crazy I did both jobs decades ago, they are not even remotely the same type of job
If you work in a warehouse and a truck comes in and you are on lunch, you are off lunch immediately If more trucks arrive in that time, your lunch break is kaput. It's the reality. In winter the warehouse is ****ing freezing, and in summer its baking and sweltering. You get soaked to the skin when in the yard when its pissing out anyone that thinks that is the same as working in the nice clean warm store either sitting down at a till or putting cheerios on shelves, is mentally ill
I didn't say that though did I. First sentence "If they're doing the same job......" Come on. You can do better than that. Wumming just ain't for you mate.
"First sentence "If they're doing the same job......"" I never said you did say it was the same job, I was criticising the claims of those looking to sue "Wumming just ain't for you mate" I already said that myself
Pete says i shouldn't believe what you lot tell me, so on this occasion i'm taking Pete's advice and you sir are a liar
In fairness I would rather work in a cold warehouse than spend all day having to deal with the general public. You need the patience of a Saint to do that.
"Dealing" You make it sound like an airport complaints department, I worked in Dublin airport in IT, and at Christmas 2012 I think it was, flights got canceled from snow so they asked us to go help the airport staff deal with customers, now that is taxing. People clapping their hands 2 inches from your face, all angry and wanting your attention.. screaming at you. In a supermarket, you say hi and ask if they have a club card, and swipe their items and they mostly pay with a card these days, don't even have to handle cash most times. All while sitting down. and have to deal with 2 busy days a week, thursday and friday What supermarkets do you go to
I am 44 and I have never ever seen someone abuse the person at the checkout, not saying it never happened, but it is definitely not common
Dealing with the public, been there done that, quite rewarding work actually, all about how you approach it
Would you want a fit woman doctor to finger your arse with her delicate pinky if you had piles or would you want some shovel handed choad finger going up there belonging to a middle aged balding man GP? See equal pay should not exist. There are no equals in this life.
