[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my first job after college I saw that the boss' son was hired to be an intern while in college along with his best friend they were being paid $22/hr each.  That was $10-$12 more than what I along with some of my other entry level co-workers were making.  Not only did the nepotism upset me, but during my 1 year review I was told that I was being given the highest raise they'd ever given an employee at their one year anniversary because I was such an awesome worker.  That "biggest raise ever" was $0.75 more per hour.

I started interviewing soon after that and once I'd secured another job, I "accidentally" left a photocopy of one of their pay stubs in the printer for someone to find.  Luckily it was a co-worker with a big mouth who had been with the company for 5 years and who was only making $30k/year.  He along with two others quit that day.  Just walked right out the building and did some paper throwing and chair flipping on the way out.  About 6 more gave their 2 weeks notice, along with me, and I found out later that 4 more people left over the next few months.

This is the least impressive story. I am having a different and bad reaction. People get paid differently for various reasons in the marketplace. Usually it's gender or race or the people's varying degrees of people skills. It can be connections too. How many sons could the owner have had? They were temporary interns, the mature thing would have been to let it go. That so many quit makes me wonder how responsible of a bunch this group was. Sounds like high schoolers behavior. . What job was this?[/quote]

What are ou talking about? You sound very young and inexperienced.[/quote]
