Payraise

To my surprise, I found out the rural mail carriers received a payraise this past pay period. Our pay has gone up 47 cents an hour. I know that doesn't sound like much but, it can add up. This past pay period, I worked 40 hours plus both week. That 47 cent raise translated into almost $40 more in my paycheck. Overtime wise, the raise means we make nearly $27 an hour when we're in overtime. I'll gladly take the additional money.
