Not my 2 week pay, but the largest check I've ever deposited from work related pay :D

It's not that it's professional, it's just sadly been merged into one of the salaried professions exempt from overtime.

They can say you're exempt from OT pay, but if you class-action sue, you will win.

But your company can just cut your base salary to get back at you. Don't ask me how I know. Those muthafuggers.

wow you got overtime? ive worked months of 70s and a few 90s and never got a dime extra, since programming is professional and thus exempt from OT
I am a non-exempt employee....I could get OT if my boss let me hehehehe...I should talk him into that o_O

Yeah, but I don't think that he's an ATOT member.

Sadly, I don't think that any CEO's from Fortune 500 companies are. They probably have their own special "Top 1% of the Top 1%" forum, which they use to complain about things like how noisy their corporate jets are.

new meme? </1%problems>

Although I dont want to reviel my e-penis, I will say that I prob make less than Slew-foot, since I am only an ER physician.

Normally, I don't get anything but straight time for overtime, but I once got tripple time for a 12 hour night shift, when it was last minute and no one else wanted it. That was sweet.

I don't see why some of you were mad at the OP's paycheck. He did not steal, cheat, or lie to get it so more power to him.

I'm happy for him that he is doing well.

If he was some kid posting his trust fund check then i would be pissed.

Oh it's really just dmcowen deflecting instead on reflecting on his life accomplishments. Obviously it must be the o/p that's keeping him down.

Anyone seriously not understanding that showing other people your paystub (especially when it's a big one), on the internet no less, is a complete fucking buffoon.

Good job if this is a troll thread?

Well, to judge whether that is baller or not, we would need to know how many hours you work a week, do you get a good night of sleep, do you get to see your friends regularly, do you get to see your family, do you have to worry about work when you are not at work, do you have to be always ready to go to work any time of the day, etc etc.

I'd rather make half of that and work standard hours, not have to worry about work when I am home and have time for myself. If you make that and still have all of those, congratulations.

But you are still a douche for bragging about your paycheck on the internet.

I got tree fiddy, and some peanuts, and they let me lick the wrapper, and it seems that they'll give me a soda bonus soon. Do I win anything?

Id say based on people's posts here like how a $40k used car is chump change that the OP was merely sharing with his peers.
