Mind, this equal pay stuff was great for my dad. He worked in the prisons on the computers and was earning less than the people who actually worked with the prisoners. This whole equal pay malarky started and as my dad was the same 'grade' or something in his equivalent post,. he got his pay backdated for years to that of the people who work with the actual prisoners, came away with about 20k. Hope I explained that right

In general, I think you should get paid for what you do and it doesn't really matter what anyone else gets paid, but if someone does the exact same job, with the exact same skills and they exact same amount of effort then yeah sure, why not have the same pay?

and LOL that's pretty amazing. Wish that would happen to me!!!
