I'm not paid by the hour.... Sigh... I'm a fixed payment SOB. That's why sometimes I'd leave the work earlier. Then I think it wouldn't do any harm to leave a little more early. I used to sit on my basement until 7:00 PM to please some mythical people who never even see me, now when the clock strikes 5 I'm already gone. There simply isn't any point to waste my time there since I won't get any raise anyway.

Congrats! This means you are looking at (at the least) -
$336 extra, after taxes, until your next raise!

[.50 (raise) x 40 hours - (30%taxes)]x 24 (weeks - 6 months) = $336

I use the 30% as a high estimate, so you'll probably get more every paycheck!

It is good to be you, my friend!

PS- The last raise I got, I went from being serving gruel and getting beaten for 10 minutes to being served bread and being beaten for only 5 minutes. I'm hoping next raise they'll either give me a slice of butter or lengthen the chains that shackle me in my dungeon.
