What would you have my mom do?
Question: What would you have my mom do?
My mom is one of the top sellers in her company, it’s well known. She makes really nice money and enjoys what she does. She’s also best friends with the company secretary. Having noticed a certain male salesperson not billing anything and coming back remarkably tan and well rested after “going to appointments” all day she had her secretary pull up his pay.
He doesn’t make what she does, as its mostly commissioned based, but his base pay is higher then my mom’s. In other words if my mom sold nothing she would make less then him (who is selling nothing now).
My mom went up to her bosses and confronted them about it. “Why is he still employed?” she asked “He doesn’t bring any money in.”
“Well he has a family and he’s a good guy” was their response.
They’ve fired a woman who had to take time off for hip surgery, and another woman who wasn’t selling anything. But they wont fire this guy.
The dynamics in the office is very “good ol’ boys club”. They’ll take clients to sporting events, golf games, and other wining dining type events and exclude my mom, the top seller, because they thought “she wouldn’t like it”. They’re keeping her away from money making opportunities, keeping her out of the club.
Why wont she leave? She makes good money, but it took a lot of time to get there and she would have to start all over somewhere else if she left. She knows if she were a man she’d make even more money, but she can’t afford to start from the bottom again at another company.
My mom never needed a maternity leave, and this isn’t a job that requires physical strength.
So what would you have my mom do? Do you think this is gender discrimination or are she and I just whining about nothing?
Well, fortunately for my mom the company can’t afford to fire her. So the fact that she went into “restricted access” is irrelivent.
And I’m not making this story up. It’s completely true, but hard to believe for the lot of you I suppose.
As I said, her job requires you to work extremely hard when you first start. It’s not the type of job where you can just leave, go to another company and get paid the same. She sells advertisement for a magazine.
My mom was at the company longer then the guy who has a higher base pay.
Wow. When there is a case of gender discrimination everyone says “just mind your own business”. Isn’t that just so typical?

Would You Remarry ?
Question: Would You Remarry ?
This guy’s wife asks, “Honey if I died would you remarry?”
He replies, “Well, after a considerable period of grieving, we all
need companionship, I guess I would.”
She says, “If I died and you remarried, would she live in this
house?”
He replies, “We’ve spent a lot of time and money getting this
house just the way we want it. I’m not going to get rid of my
house, I guess she would.”
So she asks, “If I died and you remarried, and she lived in this
house, would she sleep in our bed?” and he says, “That bed is
brand new, we just paid two thousand dollars for it, it’s going to
last a long time, I guess she would.”
So she asks, “If I died and you remarried, and she lived in this
house, and slept in our bed, would she use my golf clubs?”
and he says, “Oh no, she’s left handed.”

If your senator played golf everyday, instead of introducing legislation, would you be proud of him or her?
Question: If your senator played golf everyday, instead of introducing legislation, would you be proud of him or her?
I think I would be, because the more they do, the more they seem to screw up.
Can’t we just get back some of those “country club” senators who don’t do a whole lot?
