I was hired for my current position seven months ago. The job had been repeatedly vacated prior to my hiring and it is an extremely tough position with no training or support. I worked extremely hard to catch up with all the backlog, develop the position, etc., to be told (as a compliment!) by the executive director after four months, "You're doing really well. You have really validated my opinion of myself as director."

The arguments and final decision could have major implications for both employees and employers as it could alter the statute of limitations regarding filing an unequal pay charge. Read this article for more information and take the Snapshot Survey above to tell us which side you think is in the right.
