    Also, the part of the paper you’ve cherry picked suits your narrative

    Yes, I chose the part of the paper that supported my argument.

    So what? Is it out of context? Nope.

    The point you’ve made here seems to be … if anyone wants to make money you have to give up your life to do so.

    You literally sell your time (life) to get money. That is what a wage is. Want more money? Sell more time.

    I’m not saying that is a bad or good thing. I’m stating straight facts.

      It’s missing context, so yes, it’s a problem. With the entire context, there IS a wage gap. But you just cut that part out for the little anecdote that suits your needs. Nice. A+ I bet your teachers loved you.

      Okay, next time a woman you know complains their male coworker makes more, go ahead and tell her to work more, I bet she’ll just love that. Especially if you word it juuuust like that. “Sell more time.”

        Which I included in my post. No context missed, glad we cleared that up.

        No, I’d tell her to lawyer up because the business better have a legal reason.
