Kennedy Airport security guards Prince Jackson and Dolores Holman work the same job — but they receive very different pay.
The 56-year-old Jackson makes $8 an hour, receives no medical benefits and gets five days of paid vacation.
Holman, 51, has a far cushier gig. She rakes in $17.43 an hour, enjoys full medical and dental coverage and gets 15 days of paid vacation. Holman even has an employer-sponsored 401(k) plan — a perk that Jackson can only dream about.
1) Clearly the company that hired Dolores Holman did not get the memo that she was to be paid 25% less that Prince Jackson.
2) At no point did
I read that Prince Jackson was attempting to get employment at a security firm that at least pays better. It is indeed wrong that he is paid so little while others doing the same work are getting 50& more than he is but one does not sit on one's ass on your time off and NOT look for better work for better pay while complaining about the differences waiting for some savior to come by and fix stuff for you.
