i'm used to getting one check at the end of the month, and a small check on or before the 10th. there's another $110 check every three months on the fifth (i just got my january deposit).
i should now also get a $200 check on the third thursday and a $400 check on or before the 28th. this month, that's:
3rd: $110
9th: $75
15th: $200
28th: $401
30th: $408
february, that will be:
10th: $75
19th: $200
27th: $809
march, that will be:
10th: $75
19th (thurs): $200
27th (fri): $401
31st (tue): $408
april, that will be:
3rd (fri): $110
10th (thurs): $75
16th (thurs): $200
28th (tues): $401
30th (thurs): $408
there's no example i can find where i get paid every week, unless there's a string of holidays pulling the 28th way back to the 23rd or 24th. it would maybe be better if the cohb was the 25th, but i'm not complaining.
as mentioned, it's a big change to expect to have money when i need something, instead of constantly budgeting around an expectation of $0, and i've already been living that here since oct 1st.
