As of today, New Zealand women are effectively working for free until the end of the year because of the 8.2% gender pay gap.

Based on that gap, the average Kiwi woman is paid 336 days for the equivalent of 366 days for men, according to the Ministry for Women.

Replace junior and senior by "less experienced" and "more experienced" if you like. The example is to show that apples aren't being compared to apples.

Is this a troll comment? Or are you really this thick?

If you really can't understand a simple simile, I question who you're calling "thick".
