Our industry is going through a real upheaval.

Next week we vote on a 64% pay increase. No give backs.

Ive been here for 20 years and never seen such a thing. Probably 30% of the employees think it’s too little.

What industry gets a 64% pay raise (besides CEOs and professional athletes)?

Airline Pilots. Actually the group complaining the most, the First Officers, are seeing a 90% increase. I’m seeing a 64%.

Its been a bizarre recovery from Covid

Working in almost 100% male Tool and Die and Construction and over 93% female in a Hospital environment I found very little difference in the break room conversation.

The men would ogle and make crude remarks about women and the same for the females about men.

We had a UPS driver ask for transfer because several women were constantly hitting on him just to see him get flustered... they also had a thing for fire fighters and would tour them around to show off and rate on a 1-10 scale...

I think with a big enough cross section everyone is represented.

Yes. The newspaper was an interesting study in humans. People from all walks of life. You'd hear that kind of talk hush-hush in the offices, and different departments in advertising and the newsroom. More loudly in mid-level departments and the sports department. And blatant on the production floor. The loading dock was a world unto it's own. 😂
