why are more employers paying employees bi-weekly?

@MarineBob that does separate the real job from the Labour Ready job

@atlantic59 ... also there's no weeds out there. its all so very dead still.

@nonsensiclesnail I'm not set up on pay pal- too many mem'ries on so-called pals who never paid

@nonsensiclesnail I was paid weekly as a supermarket deli worker as a teenager. But the rest of my life has all been bi-weekly.

@Turtlepower But the total pay won't change, right. You are still getting your yearly salary whether over 26 or 24 pay cheques. Although, very weird that pay day varies. Any accounting dept should a cut off date and should release payroll on a specific date. How do they even function and cloae their books that way.

@BittersweetPotato yeah, the pay ends up being the same, but it's really weird and inconsistent. It's never late so idc but it's odd. That was my only point originally.

@Turtlepower Same. For the first 2 decades, everyone was paying me bi-weekly. Weekly pay has only been more recent for me, and it's so inexpensive now that many employers use it as a hiring incentive.

@BittersweetPotato didn’t ask for your input potato head.

@AthrillatheHunt but you learn how to adjust, right? It is a bad one though

@AthrillatheHunt that would kill me

@AthrillatheHunt that's similar to me. 15th and 30th (28th in February)

@Bluedreamz I think it’s way better I’ve been lucky so far

@Bluedreamz it helps pay for stuff quicker

@atlantic59 yes

@CrazyMusicLover shitttttt

@CrazyMusicLover

Wondering how much they take out of your paycheck.

@TheRascallyOne 😂

@PatKirby I stopped myself from applying to some jobs because they paid bi weekly

@Hanginginthere no one said you were🤷🏾‍♀️ i am explaining why weekly pay is not the most common or expected thing, since elsewhere in the world, it is even longer term than biweekly. But clearly you didn't get it.

@deadgerbil And we are supposed to believe that someone hired you?

@DigitalBushido nope all the jobs I’ve held paid every week

@Hanginginthere what kind of jobs?

@DigitalBushido mostly warehouse retail and food service

@Lostpoet hmm

@iamonfire696 something tells me I wouldn’t like Canada

@Hanginginthere it’s not so bad. Healthcare is built into the taxes, schooling is good, there’s lots of good things about Canada.

I have never known a business to pay weekly though.
