Getting paid weekly vs bi-weekly

[NeilCartwright]

Has anyone else heard this. Brehs i know use this as a bargaining point, like "Yea im getting paid every week, im getting to it, fukk yall broke boys"

Then i ask them whats the difference between getting paid bi-weekly? Like fr if you get paid 2k every two weeks vs 1k every week, what difference does it make? Your bills still the same

I never understood this

Might be easier for some to manage invoking cash flow weekly vs biweekly

Also depends when your monthly bills are due

Takes discipline either way

If it makes a difference, that means the person is living check to check. People need to save a rainy day fund so that it doesn't matter

There are still jobs that pay weekly?

Pretty much every job I've had in like the last 10+ years was biweekly. But yeah, unless you're living paycheck to paycheck it shouldn't matter.

nikkas at a call center making $10 an hour bragging about getting paid weekly.

If u hate your job, getting paid weekly can help motivate you. Something to look forward to.

years ago I turned down a job that pays their employees once a month. It was a huge financial company in New York. I thought that was just plain wrong. Making people wait that long.

I mean some people really dont make enough to cover their bills, and thats an entirely diff convo, bc wages havent moved in 30+ years

But the people who told me this was lowkey bragging lol like breh math is math. Tryna stunt bc you get it weekly when ya homeboy gets it bi-weekly. But yall make the same amount

Weekly. I used to get paid weekly to the point I had 4 figure checks piling up in a draw because I couldn't cash them quick enough or I lived off one check and saved the rest to either fukk off or pay my taxes early

So you were getting 4 figure checks weekly but didn't have direct deposit

There are still some manufacturing jobs that pay weekly. About 4 or 5 years ago, I worked for a carpet and tile company that paid us weekly. You always knew you were going to have some money coming in versus having to wait two weeks.

My mom, as a teacher, had to do the every month thing. I’ve also been at a company that did the 15th and the end of the month. I prefer bi-weekly.

Truck drivers get paid weekly


I get paid every Friday

 

[bourgeoisie tall freak]

the only difference is i get to get that feeling when i check my bank account every friday morning
rather than every two weeks or once a month.

Would you rather have the company you work for hold your money you earned one week or two weeks...?

Some shyt just self explanatory

This reminds me of dumbasses you meet in real life that be like ‘I don’t claim any tax allowances because I like to get a big refund at the end of the year ‘

I mean, it’s your money but you’re a fukking moron

I wonder if there is a tax component to it. I remember hating getting paid once a month cause the taxes seemed like they hurt even more seeing it taken in one chunk
Also if you pay child support or have health insurance having it spread out 4 times a month instead of 2 might hurt less (or more)
I went from getting paid bi monthly to bi weekly and when that 3 pay check month hit the 3rd check was cause the child support and insurance already got took out for the month
