All the whining about equal pay for “equal” work, well I worked in a union job at a Nuclear power plant. We had women mechanics and women I&C technicians. Well they definitely didn’t carry their load. The mechanics always got the paperwork job of logging tools and materials into the job, while the guys actually did all the wrenching. The I&C techs played the system by saying they weren’t on birth control thusly avoiding having to go in Containment or other high radiation areas, fertile female laws, and yes they were on birth control we talked to their husbands who worked at the plant. The salary women we had in operations actually carried their load. We had one Senior licensed shift engineer that learned quickly how to negotiate her salary, when she found out what her fellow shift engineers were making. She ended up with a salary in the top 10% of them.
