According to research good-looking people get higher raises than unattractive people. Now you know why you only got a 25-cent raise.
I'll tell you what, though...I'd hate to be one of the lesser paid teachers at the University of Texas after that study. I bet those teachers are comparing their paychecks every payday now. |

You only get raises because you always wear tight pants. Start wearing baggy pants and watch your career go down the drain.
Little in the middle but he gots much back!  |

When I was working in Phoenix, they actually started me a dollar above what I was told at the interview I would be getting. Then when I started my new job here in El Centro, I was told that I would be working from 8-4 with an hour lunch and get paid for 7 hours a day, but by my second check I was being paid for 8 hours a day (even though I was still coming in at 8 and leaving at 4...and still taking an hour lunch).
I must really be good-looking.

Sometimes the payroll department/service is too lazy to make any corrections, so the employee ends up winning. I once received an extra 10 hours of overtime because the payroll employee added a one before the actual amount. Their too lazy to pay attention.
When it's in your favor, you keep your mouth shut, but when it's in their's... all hell breaks loose. |

Hey, the tight pants are part of the business attire around here and if you got the ass, sport'em. Why do you think we get so much business?
Baggy pants are for cholos and rappers. Which one are you? |
