socialists and labour unions, usually. They always complain that women (mostly them) don't get paid enough because they are on minimum wage
I'm curious: do women try to get better jobs? Or they are all waitresses?

one little known fact is that waiters get paid less than minimum wage :3 they actually
depend on tips. think about that the next time you go eat out at some restraunt ;p
and as a working woman, i get paid $7.00 an hour working in a deli at a grocery store. Keep in mind, I've worked in the same store (i started at about $5.15, minimum wage at the time) for nearing
four years. Lets just say men who start working there just recently get paid as much as me (and even more than me), and all they do is cashier.
Iowa is raising minimum wage to $7.15 (i believe, its off the top of my head), and hell, that makes me feel like shit. I'd enjoy the extra money, etc, but the fact that a 14 year old boy who bags groceries will get paid just as much as me when I'm actually holding down 8 hour shifts and 30 hour workweeks (I'm still a student at this time, but during the summer I will most likely work 40+ hours).

But at least I'm getting paid more...
Jam it back in, in the dark.
