[MrPianoGod]

every day has 24 hours except for February which has 28

[TraxisOnTheLines]

365

8 hours a day, 1/3 of a day, he gets 121.

He didn't work Sundays, but since he only worked 1/3 of the days, you take 1/3 of the Sundays. 52/3 = 17

So he has 104 dollars.

Half a day on saturday, 1/3 of the saturdays is 17, half is 9 (8.5 round up)

So he has 87. 14 day vacation, he loses 14, 73. Lunch, 1 hour a day for the 121 days he worked is 5 days, so 5 dollars. Now he has 68. 13 Holidays is 13 dollars, making him 55.

He got ripped off for 55, poor Costello :(

What did they say at 0:10?

Working 365 days a year- $365

Working 24 hours a day, except for February, which has 28, priceless.

For everything else, there's Abbot and Costello.

[E1craZ4life]

365 days in a year = $365.

Didn't work Sundays; 365 days - 52 Sundays = $313

Half a day on Saturdays; 313 - 26 Saturdays = $287

Two-week vacation; 11 days (weekends accounted for) 287 - 11 = $276

13 holidays off; 276 - 13 = $263

Worked 8 hours a day; 263 / 3 = $88

Took an hour a day for lunch; 263 hours total, 263 / 24 = 11 days; 88 - 11 = $77.

So he was supposed to get $77.

@TraxisOnTheLines i see the flaw in your math the sundays your saying to deduct 1/3 of the day which means by your math he would pay him 2/3 of the sunday days

[STARWARSMARC]

@TraxisOnTheLines well I like the correct math BUT (I know it better then you do) 14 day vacation, -2 for sunday 12, and when u have 121 days-13 holidays u get 108 and for the 1 hour u get about 4 dollars, now add the 2 and 1 dollars to the old total of 55 and he should have made $58

@djziggurat

I wasn't trying to get all mad but the fact of the matter is that the comment was unnecessary and that it DID hurt my feelings. I'm not going to get mad at you because your RIGHT! I was outta line because i was upset but i wasn't trying to act big, i was trying to make a point. I did no better than the person, it's just that when someone talks to me like that I automatically snap into action and defend myself, but no I'm not going to get furious. So there's my side.
