Well, it's day 4 of my new job. Getting used to civilian government. I thought the military was inefficient. [8|] My core hours are 0900-1500. Other than that, I set my schedule. I work 0630-1500. Miss traffic both ways. [:D] On Monday, my boss showed me to my cubicle. Nothing at all in it, not even a chair! [:D] They scrounged me a chair and requested a computer and phone from the government. The goal is to get it in 2 weeks. A couple of guys who sit near me said it took them 3 months. [X(] I spend a lot of time looking over their shoulders asking questions but my boss still hasn't decided what I'm going to do. I guess he has time to decide. [:D] When I'm not looking over someone's shoulder, I spend a lot of time plotting my next turn, on paper of course. [:D]

Off to work!

Home from work... Diving into turns... Happy time!

No turns here. Although I did get a coworker interested in the game. Looking forward to another PBEM once he's had some time with the learning cliff. [:D]

Sounds like you need either a second job, or a very amicable divorce. [:D]

Since all you should be doing is playing WITP:AE you don't need anything more than that 1% [:D]

Hi all,

We here are paid every month (for all working days in a moth) and not every week (for all working days in a week)... I think the same thing is almost everywhere in Europe...

Interesting.. I know of a few places here that are monthly.. not sure if all of the USA or Kansas, but my wife was paid monthly when she was a school teacher..

I suspect hourly employees in the US are most commonly paid weekly, while salaried workers are mostly paid every 2 weeks, or twice/month. Once/month is pretty rare here.

Early in my career I was paid once a month. After that it was bi-weekly. I kinda liked once a month. Paid all bills at once and then I could plan on what I had left for the months recreation. The next firm I forgot it was bi-weekly and did the usual pay all bills at once. I was one broke hobo until the next pay period.
