300% Salary If You Go To Work Today
Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, a statutory holiday. What does that mean? That means you get an extra day off. Before we delve into the details, here is a video of me playing Chopin. I recorded this just for the holiday.
Going back to our main theme of today, if your boss makes you go to work today, you get 300% of your normal pay! How is that calulated? Take your monthly pay, divide it by 21.75, and multiply by 3. For example, if your monthly pay is 20,000, then it is 20000/21.75=919.54. 919.54 X 3 = 2758.62.
