don't forget holidays you might not get to work or get paid for, and also days you take off.

take hourly rate, times it by 2 and that is what you make a year as long as you work a standard 40 hour week. Its not exact but will give you a pretty close number that is quick to figure out.

I usually just take you hourly wage. Multiply by 2 add three 0's to it.
So $10/hour would be 10x2 = 20 + 000 = 20,000
which is exably the same as hourly * 40 * 50

Hourly wage X 2080

2080= total hours of full time work in a year.

Simple and correct.

Use it.

What about unpaid holidays?

What's an "unpaid holiday"??


for me, Mardi Gras is an unpaid holiday. I can't get to the office because the streets are closed (and I'd be drunk anyway), but since my company is national and not just New Orleans, they don't give us a paid holiday because then they'd have to give out an extra holiday to the rest of the offices
I worked for the Federal Government when I was in NO and I'd get paid vacation for Monday & Tuesday. :) The government and many large corporations have allowances for local holidays. Sucks that yours doesn't.

French are fvcking pathetic. My brother is there now and says they close down retaurants for like 2 hours so they can eat lunch. I suppose their priorities are different, but I think their unemployment is pretty high and obviously the average person isn't going to have a heck of a lot of money if they work that little.

Damn hate to think what you think of the Aussies and their 2-3 month vacations.

your salary is your salary

if you are an hourly worker, you aren't on salary...
