We had one of those days today where Marie decided to get up on her soap box about gender pay gaps.

The problem for Marie is that I earn more than her because she only works 8 hours a day to my ten, and has 10-15 days off sick a year compared to my 1.

Sorry Marie, but if you don’t work you don’t earn. There might be a disparity out there. But it isn’t happening to you.

I missed out on my earned pay rise because despite hitting my targets before mat leave, I had a year out with a baby and had to wait for the following year to rehit those targets.

@V00doo See, that’s more like a disparity. Please tell Marie.

@V00doo That literally is the difference. You showed up, performed - That money should rightfully be sitting in your account…at least until the kids Xmas list comes out.

Marie did fuck all, and expects to be paid for it.

@WintaTheAngle I work with a fair few Marie's too. Does my head in
