BreitbartCA: Hundreds of new laws are taking take effect in states across the country this January 1.
Taken together they provide a humorous snapshot of the priorities of the nation’s elected officials. A few, however, will have far reaching consequences. On Friday, a new law in California, passed almost unanimously by its legislature, could throw employers into a torrent of new lawsuits.
One California employment law firm notes on its website that “we anticipate that new legislation will lead to a spike in litigation — especially given that plaintiffs will have an easier task in establishing that they were performing ‘substantially similar work’ rather than the ‘same job.’”
For years California has required employers to pay women and men the same amount for doing the same job. Starting Friday, however, employers will have to pay women and men the same amount for doing “substantially similar work.”
“Of the Lawyers, by the Lawyers, and for the Lawyers … shall not perish from the Earth.”
Chaos.
The Communist’s best friend.
Oh and the Øbamboozler’s too!
On the other hand, it could also lead to “aggressive” employers firing those who are likely to be trouble.
After all,
unemployed/F = unemployed/M
Equality!
A lawyer boarded an airplane in New Orleans with a box of frozen crabs and asked a blonde flight attendant to take care of them for him. She
took the box and promised to put it in the crew’s refrigerator.
He advised her that he was holding her personally responsible for them staying frozen, mentioning in a very haughty manner that he was a
lawyer, and proceeded to rant at her about what would happen if she let them thaw out.
Needless to say, she was annoyed by his behavior. Shortly before landing in New York, she used the intercom to announce to the entire
cabin, “Would the lawyer who gave me the crabs in New Orleans please raise your hand?”
Not one hand went up, so she took them home and ate them herself.
Two lessons here:
1. Many lawyers aren’t as smart as they think they are.
2. Most blondes aren’t as dumb as most folks think.
I can hear the engines spinning up that create that giant sucking sound.
This actually could be good for the employers. They will have to cut the pay of the women that complain when they find out they are actually being paid more then the men.
It’s what we do. While Jihadis blow things up physically, we break things and fuck things up legally.
P!ss off, troll.
Oh I can’t wait for an ambulance chaser to haul Gloria Allred into court.
About the only good thing that could possibly come out of this.
Similar work: receptionist answers phone, puts it through to boss, boss answers phone.
They both answer a phone. She deserves the same pay.
My work is done here.
But if the boss is a woman, it deserves less pay?
The old work of equal value bamboozle. This is going to provide years of caviar and champagne for the law set in California. Triples All Around! Employers ought to use this law to re-evaluate all the jobs in the company and if appropriate, lower the salary of any staff member whose is deemed to have been paid too much and make sure this law is blamed for it. Then it would be fun to see the progs sizzle and jump.
The boon to the attorneys is just a side benefit.
The purpose of the law is to create a situation where types of operations that are unpopular to the criminal syndicate that operates California can be ‘legally’ shut down by forcing them to pay wages that are well above what the market will accept.
A judge can rule that due to firearms being dangerous, employees of firearm retailers and wholesalers deserve hazardous duty pay, say in line with high steel workers.
There has been much discussion amongst the progs here along exactly those lines as this was being pushed.
Hillary, you can just go by ” H ! ” if you want – we realize you’re often confused.
That should probably read: “Starting Friday, however, employers will have to move to Arizona, Nevada, or Texas.”
It’s impossible to operate legally in California, and turn a profit. I don’t care what your business is. Your options are to either move out of California, or move underground and operate outside the insanity of California law to the best of your ability.
Yes! Overwhelm the system, so nothing gets done.

Sadly, many of the sh!tstains who elected the California legislature often follow them.
A friend in Montana runs the ranch his great-grandfather started in the late 1800s. Recently, he got a letter demanding that he shut down three mercury vapor lamps at one of the barns on the west end of his ranch, which sits at the end of a wide valley, overlooked by some spectacular high country. Since it’s close to the main road, this is more than a remote barn also includes an office, a small bunkhouse a shed where equipment is stored.
Apparently, on his new neighbors from California thinks the vistas are spoiled by this “light pollution” and has enlisted some of the other Beautiful People who’ve built “chalets” on the overlooking rim. The letter hints at possible legal action or “taking this higher”.
Well, he just drove up there about daylight on a normal workday and met his new neighbors. He reminded them that it was he, and not the county, who clears the access road that runs across part of his property, which provides the only access when they are snowed in. Yeah, it seems that their private road is not maintained by anyone, and unless Sid clears a little back road (an old fire road), these beautiful people will either have to buy a big old bubba truck with a blade or learn to snowshoe.
He also brought as plate of nice, homemade biscuits. Overall, he says that these people now are getting a small clue as to how people who live out in the country have to support each other and…. be neighborly.
Take a look at Kalifornia to see what the entire USA will be if Hillary or the GOPe loving amnesty candidate is elected. Remember California used to be Reagan country.
