Do not let this person split up a bill for your restaurant party, folks

(I'm only joking, but I think you did the math the wrong way, $500x12=$6k)

Edit: yep.I'm an idiot, thanks folks, my poor example will stand as a testament to others, don't shame yourself publicly like this and pay attention in school!

Easy mistake to make. Also words can not describe my admiration and respect for someone who can leave a comment like this up with a humble edit.

I might double check your math if we split the cheque, but unlike 99% of the people on the internet, I already can tell that I would WANT to have a supper with you.

$500 per week - 500x48=24k with 4 weeks of thankfully "unpaid" vacation

United States

4 weeks of vacation

Lol

If the employee “works” every day of the year they earn -$26000

My longest vacation was 3 months.*

* …after I got laid off.

It's per week.

500 x 4 = 2000/month

2000 x 12 = 24k

By all means i'd love to split restaurant bills with you ;)

Oh I made the stupid mistake and projected it outwards lol, my bad, I apologize and edited my post

There are 52 weeks in a year not 48. 500 x 52 = 26000.
