32 hour work week equals less money

[DavzinSoCal]

Sound obvious but here’s the math. The proposed 20% increase upon ratification would be $6.40 times 40 hours would equal $256

which is exactly the same as an 8 hour day times our current $32 pay rate. You may think that’s a good trade: we get an extra day off but the raise makes up for it. Not True. It’s an illusion because if you only work 32 hours times that $6.40 you only get $204.80 so we actually lose money. Losing a day a week is 4 days a month which is almost like losing an entire paycheck per month. If this goes through you may be excited to see $38.50 per hour but confused why

your check is less. Hope this helps.
