Women Getting Even

In my files, I ran across an article from half a dozen years ago that appeals to my sense of justice.  A group at a Montana college held a bake sale.  Their delicious-looking cookies were priced at 77 cents for women buyers and a dollar for men.  Outrageous?  The idea was to call attention to the wage gap in America, with women earning 77 cents (up to 82 cents in 2022…wow!) and men a dollar for the exact same job.

You have the munchies, guy, but don’t want to spend the whole dollar?  Listen to what women employees are being told when they question the wage gap:  That’s the way the cookie crumbles.
