I was told by my boss-type thing that myself and all the interns at the company make the same wage per hour. I was also told to work one day less a week than the other two interns. Two days ago, we got our first paycheck. In the kitchen one of the interns starts talking about all the fat stacks he's counting now, and mentions his paycheck. That's when I found out I made 10 hours worth of work more than him in 3 weeks, despite working 8 hours less a week. I told him I made the exact same amount, which was still baffling on its own. Maybe the reason this problem is flourishing and workers aren't made aware, is because whoever is profiting more has nothing to complain about!
