I was so happy, I was able to get my salary but this time it was way too enjoyable.
I was given an advantage to spend time dining out with my brother and my mom in Pizza Hut SM Manila. But the best part here is we had a great escape away from any troubles at home and from the office. The best part here is that we were able to discuss among ourselves a good way to improve and get understood by our difference. We have4 a misunderstanding and did last for 3 months and the worse part here is my mom got frustrated everyday as time goes by between us and me not texting or letting her know my whereabouts.
But it's okay. Never felt better. How about you? How do you feel during Salary days? or Pay out weekend? Do mylot more about it here.

How often do you get paid in Manila? I know when Randy was woring he got paid twice a month (on the 10th and the 25th) which was hard because if the 10 or the 25th fell on a weekend we always had to wait until the following Monday. At the time he was working part-time and most of the money went to towards bills for the first check and the second check went towards our mortgage. I am in college so most of my financial aid money went towards the rest of the bills. I think it is great that you, your mom and your brother got to spend time together and talked things out. I can understand your mom being frustrated not knowing where you are because whenever I go out I let my mom know where I am going especially if I am going out of town.

The salary day is my favourite day of the month. Though all my money is already set to go somewhere precisely, I still have some resources and allow myself a little pampering, like eating in a restaurant, having a drink with my friends, buying something small, and other things like that.

Getting payment by work is a wonderful feeling. Though the salary maybe not great, but really make me feel happy and meaningful. In my salary day, I usually buy some fruits or snacks and share them with my family and my friends. Then spend times on chatting or singing. The way help me relax myself and keep a good relationship with other people.

Hi resy21curapika,
It is certainly a good idea to spend time with your loved ones and what better way than going for a meal together. It's important to iron out any problems or misunderstanding and to create that strong bond which is so lacking in families nowadays. I'm sure they will appreciate your effort. Have a nice day.

Well, as years passed, I could not remember anything enjoyable about paydays. The salary that I received only goes to my debts and our subsistence. However, there are times that I also treated myself during paydays but just very seldom. Just to ease myself with the boredom and monotony of working and staying at home.

Salary day is also pay day for rentals, bills, credits/advances, heheheh...but that day for me is the best day of the month, because that is the fruits of my stressful work..
During pay day I treat myself anything that i want..just motivation to work hard more..

It's enjoyable getting your first salary and me I just got it. I spent it with my new found friends/workmates. We spent it in a eat-all-you-can bouffet. It was hard in our pockets but it's our first salaries so we celebrated it with flying colors. hehehe

This reminded me of when I was 17 and would get my paycheck. I loved those days because it gave me the money to go out to eat and enjoy my time. In the states it is more common to get paid every other week, but it is still nice to see that money in the account. It is much better than the two days before you get paid and you are trying to figure out how to get a small amount of money to get a snack at work. Enjoy the day, you got to love them.

It feels good to recieve my salary, knowing that I worked hard to get it. But the frustrating thing is when I have to budget that money and in the end I only have a little left for myself. Sometimes it is gets tiring to be a good sister and daughter. But on the other hand it feels good to know that your love ones are well off and enjoying what you give them. It is better than worrying and wondering what they are eating while you are having a delicious meal on your plate.

I live in the USA and get paid once a week. It's more common to get paid every two weeks, but I enjoy seeing it in my account every week. In any case, on days that I get my pay, I am really happy. I usually check it and then from there plan out my purchases. I plan to make several big purchases that will help me earn more here in the near future, so I will be checking it and saving what I can plus adding to it via sites I earn online.
The only time I hate seeing money come in is when I know most of it has to go right back out.
