Well... in that case I'm guessing it has a lot to do with the salary they came from. Even if you get measely raises every year, being in the work force 2-3x as long as you adds up and switching jobs usually gets you ~10-15%. My guess is they've been around long enough that they were already making 20% more than you before they started there. In some cases, you really CAN'T make up for experience, even if it's not applicable... but 30k is a big difference for the same job description.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
