(12,233 posts)Teachers and their unions.. Total screwing of money, always training, and always told they don't know how to do their jobs. Nursing, running around on their feet for 12 hrs, seeing the patients, ainistering drugs, keeping a general eye on the patients care, yet they make so much less than the Dr... And tend to be treated as inferior people by the Dr staff.
These are just a couple off the top of my head, but if these two jobs were held by mainly men, the pay would be much more, the union probably wouldn't be as easy to bust, and defianately blaming a child's learning all upon the school, when there are so many factors (especially economics of the family the child is living in) that account for besides reading and writing.
And at the end of the day, less pay brought home by a woman is less money for a families well being and ability to move up on an economic ladder.
