ZOOOOOM!

How are they making these comparisons? Obviously comparing the salaries of dry cleaning workers is relatively easy but "lawyer" is a ridiculous broad category. Age of the employees, how long they've been working in the same field, in the same office, etc., and especially, the range of salaries in their respective fields has been left out. |

Does anybody else find it interesting that the fields with the biggest pay disparity in favor of the government were: Public Relations, Broadcast Technicians, Landscape Artists, "Recreation Workers", and Clergy?

The two biggest differentials for lawyers are the practice specialty and the location in which they practice. Anesthesiologists, for example, probably don't compare their salaries to those of podiatrists. |
