With hours like those, who has time for sleep?

---

literally working 80 or 120 hours a week lmao

and only getting $1688 for 120 hours of work is fucking insane. that's only $88k/year for basically working three full time jobs.

edit: and wait, during the week of Aug 6, there are 219 hours and only $1800 gross? while 120 hours leads to $1688 gross? so an extra one hundred hours only gives an additional $1012? does not compute

---

This is what burning yourself out looks like.

I frequently did 60 - 80 hour weeks at my old job and it gets old fast.

Also

How TF are you doing 219 hours in 1 week? There are only 168 hours in a week.

---

I'm curious why the pay rate is so variable.

---

I respect your hustle but f*** dude lol

---

120 hours in a week and still making less than me in 40, I can't even imagine how awful that would be

---

How does the 219.37 hour week work when there's only 168 hours in a week? These numbers must be paid hours and not actual hours worked.

---

I take home 1200 bucks for 40 hours. no thanks.

---

those numbers don't make sense. he's getting different rates on different lines and one week he worked 219 hours? something about it is off or fake.

---

That shit fake as hell. Aug 6 math dont add up

---

This is fake right, wtf at the pay gap (or lack thereof) between 80 and 120 hours

---

I am absolutely confused on what this represents. The rate of hours to gross pay is not consistent. One week has more hours than what exists in a week.

Yeah, this.

lol i make more money in less time and i earn less than average

---

Pretty sure he's just shitposting but there's also plenty of "rise and grind" guys that are just like this

---

They may have a two week pay period that gets paid weekly. That's the only thing I can think of that makes it possible. Like maybe you have to work ~3 weeks to get a check and then you start getting checks weekly.

---

I could probably work two less stressful part time jobs and likely have better take home than that with comparable/less hours.

it's still 14 dollars an hour, and it's 3/4 of your waking hours doing it. literally wasting your life away.

---

This seems impossible.

---

Whoa! 1st to 2nd week is 40 more hours but $100 difference!?

60 hours for $500? Thats very bad.

---

Holy shit that's a nightmare. Fuck amazon

Lmao this guy worked the equivalent of a month (120 hours) ina week for a thousand bucks?

a month is 160 hrs

---

yeah i will stay sleep

---

This guy's a sucker

---

The more hours he gets the worse his pay is proportionally?

---

I will, gladly thank you.

You heard it here, first. Being a mod for gamefaqs.gamespot.com pays bank.

---

I'd rather sleep than work the equivalent of 3 jobs and still be broke.


---

lol $1000 take home for 120 hours?

Amazon fucking sucks

---

It's probably the shift differential, it'll show up as the same amount of hours you work added instead of adding it to your base pay

there's one week for me at amazon, regular wage is $15.35 + an extra 50 cents for working nights that is calculated separately so it totals it as the 67 hours instead of just 33

idk how he got that 219 one though since that's still 100 hours, probably cashed out on his PTO since you aren't allowed to work more than 60 hours a week

---

Those wages are trash and all over time too lol

---

What the fuck shit pay is that? I do half that many hours a week and my gross pay per check is the roughly same as this shill. Except my job doesn't put severe strain on my body, has way better job security, less stress and a much lower chance of injury.

Is he straight up making minimum wage before overtime or are they just illegally not paying him overtime?

---

Sounds like a horrible job

---

i work IT for a school. im salaried. i work like maybe 2 hours of of a day, depending on what needs to be done and browse reddit for the other 6.

sometimes i just go home and hope no one notices. they usually dont.

its great. i get to be with my son and wife more while still earning money.

yeah fuck working 120 hours a week for Jeff Bezos

---

This averages to like $12-$15/hr.

depends on the cost of living in his state. if it's high. that's awfully low no offence.

When you do all the math, that's all it is. He's just bragging about slaving himself to drone work lolz

---

Lmao That person works even more than a lawyer except lawyers get paid more 2-4 times as much. What a tool.
