why do you think you are entitled to "fairness"? in this world you get what you get. i am pretty sure your employer is not paying you for how you "feel" either. and by-the-way turning up on time and not leaving early is not exceptional behaviour; it is expected behaviour. bottom line: do you add more value to your employer's business then the new hires? if so, ask for a raise, if not find a way to add more value and then ask for a raise or keep doing what you're doing and accept what you get.
