9/9 Let's say that the average motd reader/poster makes 25$/hour, and
always reads/posts from work. Let's say that on average, there are
60 posters/readers who spend an average of an hour a day on the motd
every day of the year. Then the total cost of the motd to the U.S.
economy is about a half a million dollars per year. w00t!
Note: these numbers are for entertainment purposes only and are clearly
bullshit.
\_ Yes, these numbers are clearly bullshit. You must be a grad student
or something because $25/hour is roughly $50k/year and we know from
previous discussion that the average here is a lot higher than that.
Also, there aren't 60 unless you include the wall, nor is it likely
an hour each, and an hour of work time is not lost since most of
them are working more than 8 hours a day anyway. I know you're
just bullshitting around but it bugs me when people who don't work
think they can calculate worker costs like this.
\_ do you understand the concept of average? If one person makes
50$/hour, it cancels a 0$/hour student and makes 25$/hour.
I did not imply that anyone actually makes 25$/hour.
\_ So you're implying that students post to the motd? FOOL!
\_ I am, and I just did. |
