But hey when I called again to make a complaint about the charges and their gigantic mess up they asked me to send an email AFTER I finish travelling with them. Lucky I’m a writer… whose really disappointed with @Qantas level of care and empty “condolences to the family”

1/ Here's a story of the lack of empathy and kindness at @Qantas. My partner was flying home to Australia from Canada to see her ailing elderly father. It was a last minute trip and costlier than normal. She left on Sunday August 31st. Flew through Dallas.

Today is Equal Pay Day. It represents how much into 2023 women in Canada have to work to earn the same as a man by the end of 2022.

[Canadian Women's Foundation @cdnwomenfdn]

It impacts all life stages, and it accumulates: girls 12 to 18 experience a summer job gender pay gap of almost $3.00/hr. Women post-secondary students leave school with lesser means to pay student loans. And it contributes to a gendered pension gap of 22%.
