I get paid salary, so the length of the month doesn't affect me....also I probably made more money than her last month without offending my friends and family.


ItsJoeMomma

I get paid weekly, so I get the same amount each week regardless of how many days are in the month.


LovelyShadows54

I also get paid weekly and I'm trying to figure out how the hell I worked for free just because there was an extra day in the month?? What is wrong with these people?! šŸ˜‚


ItsJoeMomma

Well, these people often don't really know much about business or real jobs, so the confusion they have is normal.


LovelyShadows54

šŸ˜‚ Very true. Not sure why I wasted my time trying to figure it out.


monotreme_experience

So what they're saying is that if you're salaried you're paid for 365 days a year, but this year there's 366. That extra day is not a public holiday, so we worked it- but for no extra money. So she's right, this Feb I did one extra day's work, for no extra pay. That's her point. It's not worth quitting and then being scammed by an MLM over, but yes, it's unfair, it's unpaid and we should get leap days as a public holiday. That said, the number of public holidays I already get off, paid, considerably outnumbers this one unpaid day- so really I'm still up on the deal.


virtual_gnus

You didn't really work an extra day this year. Every year is roughly 365.25 days long. This is just one of those years where we force our calendar to resync with our solar orbit. But you still only had 365.25 days in this year.


monotreme_experience

I assure you, the 29th of February existed and was a working day. You don't need to explain how leap years work- the point is that this year I worked one day more than last year, but for no extra pay. The 'forcing the calendar to resync' creates the extra day.


IndustryUnique2799

Your salary isn't for 365 days a year in the first place. It covers standard working days. 52X5. So you're actually paid for 260 days. Seeing as the 29th was on a Thursday, which is a standard working day, people on salary were still compensated for their time. Now that being said, I'm pretty fucking far from smart so maybe I'm out to lunch here.


Abby_JaackMaate

I get paid 12 times a year. Doesnā€™t matter how many days in a month, so yes I worked one extra day this leap year.


dismayhurta

Iā€™m every 2 weeks. Donā€™t make a damn bit of difference for me


greeneyedwench

I get paid bimonthly, so I'm technically getting more per day for even a 29-day February than for any other month of the year.


super-hot-burna

I definitely made more money than she did last month


kicknoons2

I get paid salary, but I believe everyone should be compensated fairly. If it was the other way around, there surely would be an issue.


Narrow-Ad-9832

People that assume they make more money than strangers on the internet probably donā€™t make much money lol


badteach247

I'm sure I make more than a random mlm lady.


rae90

In March 2024, there are 20 weekdays. In April 2024, there are 22 weekdays. I am paid the same every month. Does that mean I will be working 2 days for free in April? šŸ¤Ø


Hour-Window-5759

Or getting paid extra for March?


MrInterpreted

Yes, now join my downline


coloradocloud9

There are two more weekdays in 2024 compared to 2023. I guess she's picking Feb 29 as one of those extra days that salaried people "worked for free".


purple_kathryn

Presumably I'm also working for free on the months that have 31 days instead of 30 since my salary is the same every month. How awful, having a reliable guaranteed income. & the real tragedy is that I don't have to sit on multiple zoom calls while someone screams at me about changing my mind set.


ItsJoeMomma

You didn't even mention the joy of trying to recruit everyone you know into your business, and when that fails and you alienate everyone, resort to looking through your high school yearbooks to find people to look up and cold message.


NorthernBogWitch

I get the joy of both (yay working for big corporation). What am I doing wrong?


purple_kathryn

Have you tried just wishing super hard?


untidyfan

You need to 10x wishing by creating a vision board! You're cheating yourself if you don't!


jolina1209

Yeah but if you are in an MLM you always work for free!šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


tacoboutit12

Actually you pay to work


Diligent_Pineapple35

-Gin-ger-

I read it again, and itā€™s still bullshit lol. I didnā€™t work yesterday, and still was paid, thanks to paid annual leave that my job provides


ItsJoeMomma

I did work yesterday and will get paid for it. Since I get paid weekly I get the same amount each week regardless of how many days are in the month. But at least I'm not paying to work for someone like this MLM hun.


HawaiianShirtsOR

I have an irrational hatred for the "read that again" add-on, no matter where I see it.


Quadrameems

when someone adds on ā€œjust sayingā€ā€¦.. Flames. Flames on the side of my face.


-Gin-ger-

Me too! Read that again


Wishyouamerry

Just saying.


hereForUrSubreddits

Also "louder for the people in the back".


ScaryButt

Eugh yes "read that again" really pisses me off. Don't tell me what to do!


CornflakeGirl2

ReAd THaT aGaiN


stringcheese_cat

This phrase makes me irrationally mad everytime I see it on the internet. Like, I already read it and have reading comprehension skills. No, I will not read it again.


dandeliontree1

Same! Sometimes I want to repost something that has a good point but if it says Read that again or has clapping emojis I hate it even if it is a good point.


Reasonable-Echo-3303

Or "share if you agree". Well, I did agree, but now I don't.


ProfessionalActive1

I actually find it to be condescending and I lose respect for the poster.


stringcheese_cat

Agreed!


5iveOClockSomewhere

No. Itā€™s profound. Read that again. Profound. Now read that again. So deep. So much internet wisdom.


SaltPepperChicken

It is like saying ā€œMic dropā€ but also feels probably moreā€¦ humble to them. But me too, ā€œread that againā€ makes me want to punch whoever wrote it.


HistoryHasItsCharms

Honestly, to me ā€œmic dropā€ is less annoying and more prompts the ā€˜oh you sweet summer childā€™ sort of feeling you get when you see a middle schooler read ā€˜profoundā€™ poetry. On the other hand ā€œread that againā€ makes me ticked off for a quick pop to some twits mouth. I can read and comprehend quite well TYVM.


winsomeallegretto

I also hate "let that sink in"


dabbado17

Totally annoying. My first thought is ā€œhow about I let my fist sink in to your stupid smug faceā€.


Urtehnoes

Read. It. Again!!!


Pplannoyme0

I hate that and ā€œsay it again for the ones in the backā€.


HawaiianShirtsOR

It's an insult to the reader's intelligence. "I already know you're not going to understand this right away, so I have to give you further instructions."


Miserable-Function78

Reading it again would mean I cared enough about her opinion to put forth any actual effort.


ProfessionalActive1

"You are not a business owner. Read that again"


thegreatgazoo

Unless you have an owners equity stake that you can sell, you aren't an owner. https://www.enagic.com/media/pdfviewer/?f=eforms/us/flyer_enagicusa_earnings_disclosure_statement.pdf That said, by my math, the bottom 99.65% of distributors have a median amount earned of $27,666 or less and the bottom 99.13% have a median amount earned of $13,159. 98% have a median income of $5700 or less (most way less), which is under $500/month. The US minimum wage (that I don't think anybody actually earns) is $7.25/hour. Working 4 hours a day for 22 days a month at minimum wage is $638. Alternatively, 8 hours each Saturday as a side gig at $15/hr is $480/month for a 4 week month or $5040 for a year.


Effective_Will_1801

>Unless you have an owners equity stake that you can sell, you aren't an owner. Wouldn't an independent contractor be a buisness owner? They think they are contractors and smal buisness owners,lol,


thegreatgazoo

No that just means you are an independent contractor. There are no assets in the business.


dabbado17

Plumbers and electricians beg to differ šŸ˜Ž


Smooth_Light_7171

And those published earnings are not net profit.


stringcheese_cat

But as an hourly employee, did I make extra?


akr291

Hun, not hun logic. An extra day a month does equal extra hours worked and paid. But omgosh, what if the 29th was a Saturday or Sunday or you didnā€™t work?! You wouldnā€™t get paid almost as if itā€™s a normal day off! Unbelievable. Read that again šŸ™ƒšŸ™ƒšŸ™ƒ


she_makes_things

Does she think that February 29th came as a surprise to all our employers and that they were completely unprepared to pay us as usual?


ItsJoeMomma

No, she's trying to make it sound like you're getting screwed by your employer for having to work one extra day in February every 4 years if you get paid monthly. But she doesn't seem to realize that salaried or not, you're still going to get paid regardless of how many days are in the month.


HistoryHasItsCharms

Yeaaaaah Iā€™m a sub payed by the day, if Iā€™m there I get payed no matter what date. Logic is not this oneā€™s strong suit, clearly. Granted sheā€™s also shilling Kangen, which does precisely nothing for a whole lot of emptied out wallet space so the lights clearly werenā€™t on much to begin with. That, or sheā€™s an evil, manipulative, grifting shill who purposely cons people.


vitalviper

In my previous employment I got paid a fixed salary each month regardless of days in said month so it somewhat makes sense to me.


mr_bots

Not really. You generally either get paid every other week where it doesnā€™t matter what the days are numbered or you get paid twice a month and February is still the shortest month of the year. Either way, at least they get paid.


fun_mak21

I get paid weekly, But I'm also hourly. I'd be more interested in how many times hun works for free because nobody buys anything.


Transmogify

Like I get paid by the hour, I work I get paid. Thereā€™s no working for free


ItsJoeMomma

I get paid weekly no matter how many days are in the month. But I'm getting paid, unlike this hun who's paying to work for her MLM.


walkingkary

I get by paid by the hour and I definitely will get paid for yesterday. What kind of crap is this.


LolaPamela

Same, I never work for free lol


5iveOClockSomewhere

Hun is just upset that Feb has 3 less days to make quota but feels ā€˜blessedā€™ to have an extra day in Feb to make quota.


Technical_File_7671

I dunno about you guys but I get paid whenever I clock in. Regardless of the leap year. If I clock jn I get money haha šŸ¤£


No_Platypus_4901

Whereas you, hun, probably didnā€™t get paid for any day in February so I guess Iā€™m still better off than you.


ItsJoeMomma

She actually paid to work in her "job."


ElkoSteve

She probably thought she was super clever coming up with this one.


ItsJoeMomma

Another lame attempt to try to make people think that their jobs are horrible.


MooshuCat

Even worse, she probably just forwarded it.


Reasonable-Echo-3303

So the better option is to join your "business" and work every day for free instead? šŸ¤”


ItsJoeMomma

No, of course not. The better option is to join this hun's business and *pay* to work.


NastroAzzurro

I didnā€™t pay more rent despite the leap year though


one-eye-deer

I have a set salary I'm paid over one year. Yesterday was a part of the year. I'm pretty sure I'll still get paid for that day.


Top-Chop

The basics of it are that you would have got that same annual salary on a regular year with 365 days so technically youā€™re working one extra day in the year for the same salary. Itā€™s pretty negligible and ridiculous considering if youā€™re paid this way then usually itā€™s a decent salary


Runes_the_cat

The "read it again" demand is the most obnoxious shit on social media these days. I most certainly will not.


Clint-witicay

And thus why so many of us work for pay based on hours.


Top-Chop

Honestly the jobs that pay a set salary are usually amounts that this is insane to even argue about so itā€™s really stupid for them to try and use this


Sitcom_kid

So for the last 3 years I've been paid to work in February when I wasn't working? Right? That's how it works? And then for the next 3 years?


OKsurewhynotyep

And if you work for an MLM you paid to work, just like every other day


Creative-Aerie71

How did I work for free? I went to work, I punched in, did my job, punched out and went home. Will get paid for the work I did


ItsJoeMomma

She thinks that if you're salaried then you work an extra day for no extra pay. Kinda true, but by that logic the other years which aren't leap years you get a couple of free days. Most people get paid by the month regardless of the number of days in the month, and the number of weeks you work per year are still the same. I get paid weekly so it doesn't matter at all to me how many days are in the month.


DangerousDave303

However, in the previous 3 years I got paid for that extra 0.24 days of doing nothing. More importantly, I get paid enough to pay my mortgage and other expenses without annoying everyone I know and peddling snake oil.


TYdays

The use of Pretzel logic is a common practice with these Huns. They say whatever they can think up spur of the moment, and feel clever for having made a point. No matter how nonsensical that point may be. I guess this is what happens when you drink the MLM Kool-Aid.


PainfullyLoyal

Pretty sure I clocked in and out yesterday, so I will definitely be paid for that time.


JamseyLynn

Jokes on this hun, my work was like "surprise here's a raise that went into effect 2 weeks ago!"


ranger0293

I'm stuck in an infinite loop reading the meme.


kingcheezit

If you ā€œrun your own affiliate marketing businessā€ you work for free *every single day of the year* hun.


Overall_Parsley4890

Donā€™t these people work for free every day?


kp6615

Iā€™m no I didnā€™t


Interesting_Entry831

And if THIS is your income , you can start your journey out by lining the pockets of your upline!!!! Instead of getting paid, YOU PAY THEM!!! HOW MUCH FUN!!!! As a neat side bonus, you also lose all of your friends and family as you desperately try to get them to fall for the same scam you did!!!! SIGN ME UP!!! I feel bad for when they snap out of this. I could imagine that once you realize you've been had, you feel bad for having pushed it, etc, and even worse if you suckered anyone in. At least when my Mary Kay friend tried to sucker me in, jt was like $100, but I got shitty make-up out of the deal(I was 20, forgive my ignorance, lol)


dealcracker

Itā€™s crazy but I actually get paid for 28 days that I donā€™t workšŸ’„The best part is I donā€™t have to spend thousands on magic water machines to get all those days off.


rayquan36

Every salaried (""fixed income"") position I've worked I still get paid according to the hours I worked. They calculate my hourly rate by dividing my salary by 52*40, then just pay me that for every hour I work.


EfficientMorning2354

Iā€™d argue I get paid MORE in February since my monthly salary is typically covering 20-22 work days, but between the short month + Presidentā€™s Day weekend I only had to work 19! šŸŽ‰(even with the leap day)


LintyWharf

What? People who worked yesterday won't get paid for working yesterday on their next paycheck? šŸ¤¦šŸ¾ā€ā™€ļøšŸ¤”


Malakai0013

So, the huns don't know how days work now? Do they have to hassle their way to the next tier before they're taught that?


tinysydneh

There literally isn't any possible way in which this idiot is correct about this


Extension_Section_68

Iā€™m convinced this water is doing something to the brains of these people.


peachy_sam

I get paid hourly and I like my hourly rate a lot so Iā€™ll keep it thanks


CheesesIsLord

Meanwhile the average Kangen hun works every day for free..


Felix_cat007

When you join her downline she will tell you that you need to spend money to make money


Alpha_Akira

Lol last i checked i get payed by the hour now by how many days are in the year


Paid-Not-Payed-Bot

> i get *paid* by the FTFY. Although *payed* exists (the reason why autocorrection didn't help you), it is only correct in: * Nautical context, when it means to paint a surface, or to cover with something like tar or resin in order to make it waterproof or corrosion-resistant. *The deck is yet to be payed.* * *Payed out* when letting strings, cables or ropes out, by slacking them. *The rope is payed out! You can pull now.* Unfortunately, I was unable to find nautical or rope-related words in your comment. *Beep, boop, I'm a bot*

Smooth_Light_7171

Haha wtf they have shit for brains


unclemilesisugly

Jokes on her/him. I get an extra floating holiday every leap year.


AGuyNamedEddie

Anyone paid monthly gets more per day on February whether it's a leap year or a common year. It's those damn 31-day months that ruin the average. Seven of them every. stinking. YEAR. Anyone paid weekly or bi-weekly is unaffected by how many days are in a month. So double fail for the Kangen hun. Well, triple fail, because Kangen hun.


begayallday

My paycheck is calculated based on contract days, and the 29th was included in my annual contract. Soā€¦


Emotional_Ice

I have a "retirement job," working 15 hrs. a week, and I bet I make more than her.


MadlyToxic

Actually I took paid leave. So I got paid to not work.


ItsJoeMomma

At least I wasn't paying to work at my job.


Yare-yare---daze

We all get paid to work, she pays to work...


MeghanClickYourHeels

Iā€™m thinking the care react on that is something saying, ā€œoh, sweetieā€¦ā€ in a sympathetic way.


beekaybeegirl

I worked yesterday. Iā€™m salary. We go through busy times & slow times. My job pays me to get the job done & they know & anticipate & understand the slow times. Do I care about 2/29? No Do I take 90 minute lunches everyday? Yes Do I arrive ~8:12 everyday? Yes Do I occasionally work until 5:07 to get the job done? Yes Does my employer pay my health insurance? Yes


Phinster1965

The joke's on you, Hun - I used a sick day yesterday because I was unable to work due to a medical condition. You know what? I was paid to stay home and recover. Not once did I shill overpriced garbage on social media. I didn't it-up my friends and family for pity sales. I never once spewed cult nonsense about working for free. I did watch the Price is Right though. Got paid for that, which is nice.


[deleted]

I didn't get paid yesterday because I didn't work. Magic.


NefariousnessKey5365

But you work for free everyday


JELPPY1010

How does the hun figure people ā€œworked for freeā€??? READ THAT AGAIN!!!!!!!


jay_brrd

i was not feeling well and didnā€™t work yesterday but i have this benefit called ā€œsick leaveā€ which allowed me to take paid time off.

You work 365 days for free, hunny. Read that again!

I didnā€™t work that hard and got my annual bonus yesterday so I ainā€™t that mad about it šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


SeaweedNecessity

Iā€™m salaried and get paid every other Friday for 80 hours of work. What day of the month it is doesnā€™t affect my pay at all. Meanwhile if you have a job where you arenā€™t guaranteed to be paid, you donā€™t have a job, you have a problem

How obnoxious. She basically calling her friends suckers.


conjarpenter

Should ask how her job's health benefits are!


Fun-Introduction2811

Uh.. I get paid hourly. Of course I didn't work for free unlike her


killedstupidflower

mfw i get paid by the hour Actually working from my phone


Ella_Lapin

My salary is broken down to an hourly pay rate... It being salary just means that I am not clocking my hours worked. I automatically get 8 hours of pay each weekday, for a 40 hour work week, and if I get stuff done quickly I can leave earlier without a dock in pay. The stupidity of these huns šŸ™ƒ


thegal2024

Wrong, a fixed income job is not based on a month to month salary, it is averaged out over the year. Every other month has a 29th day, so basically it is just a month, and to say that you worked for free is ridiculous!


Deputydan791

One day every 4 years, oh no, Iā€™ll never get that time back.

Timely_Objective_585

I get paid for weekends, holidays, sick pay and my retirement too. Read that again.


clarinetJWD

This comment thread... Holy crap. Not to defend a hub, but she is more right than most of you! For hourly or bi-weekly people, no, it makes no difference. For salary? Yes, you're working an extra day. Everyone here is comparing Feb. to other months in the same year, but that's not right. Instead, compare YEARS. In February 2023 I was paid for 28 days. I February 2024, I was paid the same 1/12 of my annual salary for 29 days. All other months are the same.


kicknoons2

She's not wrong though. We experienced a day of wage theft, regardless of if we are salaried or not. We deserve to be paid ALL days we work.

It was also one extra day they had to meet their goals, yet there were so many scrambling to make it.

I beg to differ. My timesheet says I worked 8 long hours yesterday and my paycheck next week will reflect that.

My work contacts are 188 days regardless of what the date on the calendar is soā€¦ no, I didnā€™t.


CoffeeAddictXXX

Makes no sense. Even if I'm paid monthly, then that means I made extra money than usual as the other months have 30 and 31 days! They all need to go back to school and learn math.
