Ouch. I hope they're paying you well for that one.

sort of..

[tat2ddeviant.livejournal.com]

but it's considered *Bonus* Pay and and about 40% of it is taken away in taxes...so we can afford to go and bomb more "Terrorists" (read: women and children)..

yep..

And you get that back when you do your tax return and get your refund.

Re: sort of..

[tat2ddeviant.livejournal.com]

Ah.. but not all of it... you get a mediocre precentage of the crazy percentage they took...

When you do your tax return, pager pay is taxed as regular income - so you get back whatever portion of it would have been in the original check had it been taxed as normal pay.
