Problem:
A female is socializing after work with some co-workers. At dinner, a couple of her male co-workers start discussing salary and talking about other job offers with more money. Her male counterparts were currently making at least $5,000 more a year than her. She suddenly understands that she has been making less, with no immediately discernible reason, for at least the last five years. This would reflect gender discrimination but could be hindered by the statute of limitations. How should the female handle this type of situation? Looking for different views and ideas on this type of situation.
