READY TO FACE THE CONSEQUENCE!!!
I don't know were the "system" has allowed a man to earn more than a woman, and at the end of the day she put as much (or even more) energy in her job (even though we KNOW it still happens).
A simple change in the "performance" (job description) is allowed for an inferior "pay". It's a clever game. Lets complete the job, BUT with less pay. But we both know that you doing the same "average" job and getting a lower salary.
WELL this is what I sense we should do:
In EVERY CITY, there should be a group of people that are SPECIFICALLY put in place to deal with "unjust" causes (lower pay). I know this is common (women are getting paid LESS, even though it has not been totally fixed, OR so-called "fixed" but they they use the "job description" as a way out of it).
Not every job is "unqualified because of your (lack of a) diploma". The REAL PERCEPTIVE people ARE THOSE WITH >>> N O <<< (formal) EDUCATION!!!!!
I SHOULD KNOW >>> I AM ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE !!!!! <<<. I put my JAC education (very very little education) aside and tried to understand what was going on.
You have to PUT ASIDE the DIPLOMA, and DEAL WITH REALITY. Diplomas are only good for a specific (with certain exceptions) things. After that you either forgot your education (not all but it's a possibility), moved on to a totally different branch, or technology has moved WAY further away from you education, etc., etc., etc. Diplomas are only good for certain things. Other things you learn by >OBSERVING< things. If no one >OBSERVED< stuff we'd still be at square 1.
The pay has been really tough for me to handle, because of the "NO DIPLOMA" situation. I mean look at what I have sourced, It is NOT ME, it is something outside me. I don't "try" to get information, it comes to me, and I manage to put into words every thing that I realize.
I DON'T HAVE >AAANNNYYY< COMPLETED EDUCATION. I have very very little education. AND I found out a LOT of things that you would not even find in books. As a matter of fact there are books that would require rewriting if you ask me. The "seeing" part is where I take my observation.
OK back to the topic: In the end I think that's what should be done. Put people in charge of this problem in a group and take the right moves to make it work. But I don't think they should necessary be a legal matter. I mean it's all common sense. BUT we must ensure that there is no one taken advantage of.
I think the real job should be on the qualifications for the task. It's simple... The qualifications should be on the ability to do the job right. Not only a "diploma" written on you resume. We are talking many many sources of information besides school. You could have someone who learned (really LEARNED) on a "learning at home" basis. I would hire someone who really learned by themselves and did discoveries on their own actually. This, to me, is someone that would work well in a company. All you need is a "quick" learning (a few short classes) and you KNOW they would be very very good at their job.
But, also, there is the kind of person that likes things really strait, with no form of creativity in the job, and this is as important in society as our more creative people. It takes 1 Division to make a society.
EDUCATION:
You have to ERASE the "unnecessary" courses from school: ASIDE FROM HIGH SCHOOL. Which you learn how to develop everything in "you"... BUT when you are finished High School you are quite ready (with about, I'd say 70%) to go out there and >WORK<. Actually maybe I could make a general poster which would help someone take the right path... Hmmm... I'll think about that...
When high school is completed, you go to college, if you wish. But in college, I will say this, and I don't care what anybody says, BUT: College should be a CONCENTRATION of the skills for the job you are going to occupy. With all courses removed, ALL SUPERFLUOUS COURSES REMOVED!!! PERIOD!
1 - It should be LIGHTNING FAST!!! 1 1/2 YEARS MAX, THAT'S IT. AND if you don't like what you studied, you go back and start over. MAKES TOTAL SENSE. Not a lot of time >WASTED<. I wonder how may people can't afford either another 3 years wasted with no money coming in, or half the time but a private school and >PAY< to study.
2 - College should be with NO HOMEWORK AT ALL >>> P E R I O D <<<. What homework does is keep the brain busy busy, and it >> CAN N O T RELAX <<. You have to >REST< you brain. It will R E L A K S... You have a rested brain, you let the cells grow and find a place to RELAKS. I can't say this enough... Homework is JUST THE OPPOSITE to a brain, and we are >forced< to keep it busy. If we'd relax our brain we'd discovered many things the "busy" brain would oversee. Many things...
Now the government in colleges (at least here in Quebec) pays for school that is packed with
things you really do not need.
The school system is flawed (at least in Quebec). You have *free* school, but you have to do all there courses that don't mean >>> ANYTHING <<< to you. AND to top it all off, you make MORE MONEY by hurting your brain. I mean, SERIOUSLY???
If you take a private course however, now your really studying. You concentrate your self on just the standalone classes. AND, You have an even >SHARPER< mind that is ready to work. BUT you're turning things around by PAYING for the education, AND you end up being paid LESS! DOES THAT MAKES ANY SENSE TO YOU? REALLY???
WHERE IS THE LOGIC IN THAT???
NOW, you KNOW that there is something totally >>> MESSED UP <<< with the education system. WE MUST REVERSE THE WAY THING THIS ARE RIGHT NOW. We hurt ourselves going to school now. IT IS A FACT!!! IT HAS TO CHANGE AND FAST!!!
Now that you've heard me pointing to things that are wrong, it's time for me to reveal something to >>> Y O U <<< that you probably never really expected...
OUT OF MY "OBSERVANT" NATURE, >>>YOU<<< WILL NOT BELIEVE WHAT I AM ABOUT TO SAY............
STAY TUNED!!!!!
