Found put my job also has a wage gap. Just fml.

Well we got a new guy at the hotel yesterday. I was picked to train him. So I'm taking him around showing him the in and ours. Where we do the laundry, stock up on our supplies, put our carts when done etc. Then I do my usually same talk, asking what they started him at so I can let them know if they're f*cking him over or not. And guess what he said. “Oh they started me out at 16.75 but I have three years experience in this field is probably why.” I just looked at him and went I have five. That's right I have two more years of experience, yet I had to basically argue with them just to start out at 15. I've been here almost a year now too and only at 16.53 now. Yet the start him out at more than I currently make.…


Well we got a new guy at the hotel yesterday. I was picked to train him. So I'm taking him around showing him the in and ours. Where we do the laundry, stock up on our supplies, put our carts when done etc. Then I do my usually same talk, asking what they started him at so I can let them know if they're f*cking him over or not.

And guess what he said. “Oh they started me out at 16.75 but I have three years experience in this field is probably why.” I just looked at him and went I have five. That's right I have two more years of experience, yet I had to basically argue with them just to start out at 15. I've been here almost a year now too and only at 16.53 now. Yet the start him out at more than I currently make. And literally the only difference is our gender. I have more experience and even certifications he doesn't, yet they bull this obvious gender based bullshit. I hate this country.

Also we got a girl about a month back who also got started at 15 like me. So yeah.
