I don't think it's fair when I have to bust my ass as long as I do for pennies while major brands are reaping record profits year over year. Seems more like an unbalanced scales of justice to me. You and I don't have many hours in the day, yet the big dogs who make literally millions per year can go play golf, fly for a vacation for a month, etc. Who's working harder? I'm not asking for the world. I'm asking for fair pay and fair costs. If I'm struggling, my pay is not fair. If you're record breaking profits every year are successful, you aren't setting fair costs.
