What do you mean? An employer should be able to pay their employees whatever they feel is fair? So, like, $3.00 an hour would be OK?

I said the same thing when I read Brandon's post. So, an employer can give Bob $4.00 an hour and Jennifer $8.00 because Jennifer wears short skirts to work. Of course, you could reverse that and say Bob gets $9.50 an hour and Jennifer only gets $7.00 an hour because Bob has a family to take care of...oh wait, that already happens. LOL

That's absurd.

Once the news of this 'project' was leaked onto NBC's "Nightly News" this 'retailer' tried 'desparately' to deny the story until they finally decided to not seek to have the state-of-the-art airport built, Thus blaming the NBC news report for loss of 'potentional jobs' for those who would have built this joke-of-an-airport!!!
