Hospital official " want a better pension...you should just marry well'

[goddess40]

I have searched all morning for a link for the story that appears on page A5 of the Wausau Daily Herald but have been unsuccessful so far. I can't believe that it didn't make the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on-line since it happened there. So I'll have to quote it here for everyone to read and be disgusted.

Appearing in todays paper 'Protest Creates 24 "brides"' The VP of Human Resources at Aurora Health Care, Gene Krauklis, told nurses who are negotiating their contract " if you want better pensions, you should just marry well".
The CEO of that company earns 3 million a year and recently had $1.3 million put in his pension.
24 nurses in protest put on wedding gowns and asked the CEO to marry them.
Aurora's response was stellar their statement about the protest "We are serious about negotiating a new contract with the union in Burlington, and this silly display of street theater today does not move us closer to agreement." Sounds like a non-to cleverly veiled threat to me.

No one seems interested on the GD thread so I thought I'd try hear - I just am outraged over this.

6. Ahh, yes, this exemplifies brilliantly why

equal pay is the little woman's fault for choosing an occupation that pays less. It's not a hostile working world at all, see girlies? :sarcasm:
