My new company pays us on the very last working day of every month. Yes, we get paid once a month.
After not receiving any consistent, large income for some time, it was wonderful to finally get paid for the 12 days in December that I worked a few weeks ago (there was a glitch so I didn’t get my Dec pay until January) but today, hold my hand readers, I received my pay for the month of January!!! It was a surprise because we weren’t supposed to get paid until Monday, the 31st.
I promptly texted my husband who replied:
“They pay you for being a meeting planner”
You will first notice that this is, apparently, a question yet there is no question mark. You will then notice his feeble attempt at being funny on what is a joyous day.
As I looked over my pay check direct deposit stub (I like calling it a “stub” from days gone by), checking out all the dollar signs and numbers, my eyes lighting up like a child on Christmas morn (I love the word “morn” too) something stuck out like a sore thumb. You’ll see above.
Ironic isn’t it?
