My employer issues pay stubs the day before we are paid. So today, I received my first paystub after I got notice of my raise. wahoo! It was pretty neat to see that bigger number. I had guessed it would be about $50 more then usual - it wound up being $47.11 more.
Edit:
To clarify - I meant that the raise was $47.11 more then I used to get paid. I thought it would be $50. So I guessed $2.89 over. Pretty close :D

The raise alone is great but the extra money on top of what you guestimated is sweet indeed.
ReplyDeletedo you mean $47.11 over $50 as in $94.11? Either way, it's still great to get a raise!
ReplyDeleteYEAH!!! Good work on the guesstimation. =D
