lol that's a 0.10 % pay raise

How much can you even overcomplicate things anyway. If you want to calculate any 10% increase all you have to do is to multiply by 110%, which is of course 1.1, but you don't even need to know that anymore if you use a good enough tool.

Even simpler, just move the decimal point over. $2.64. Add that to the base salary and you get $28.99.

Yeah, a 10% percent pay raise.

It’s like “moronsayswhat “ but with your livelihood!

We said “we’re offering you a TEN^thofa^ percent raise if you agree with this say ‘thank you’”

Now kiss capitalism’s hand, thank it and get back to work.
