Weekly, Bi-Weekly paydays

Recommended Posts

Do you really mean bi-weekly, or do you mean bi-monthly? Being paid twice a week seems like a big pain for the administrator!

I went from weekly to monthly once when I got promoted from hourly pay to a salary. That sucked...that last weekly paycheck had to last me a lot longer than it was sized for, and I had to buy some more "professional" clothes with it as well.

My old boss did that... He changed the paydays from weekly to monthly! B| He said it was easier for him to reconcile. Monthly paydates can hurt ya for sure. It took me a couple of months to realize what a budget was...

Just recently I changed jobs and went from weekly to 15/31 pay dates. I'm still trying to catch up... And remember what I learned about budgeting a few years ago. :S

Bi-weekly would be every two weeks. Semi-weekly would be twice a week. :P:ph34r:

That's exactly what I said, However that's the way is spelled out in the letter from payroll. Seems like that is the term used.
I really dislike this, after all this time, seems like someone just had this thought"hey, I know lets change everyone paydays!"
I have alot of re-figuring some stuff!

Wikipedia says, "Outside the context of publishing, it is also used to mean two times per week". :P



A better reference would be dictionary.com, which lists both possibilities, but it lists mine first. :P

What are your thoughts on the difference between semi-annual and biannual?

How did it change your taxes?
To me it should be the same, however, I'm sure it will have some effect.
Also, seems company is doing this to to streamline and company is growing. Probably, saving money in payroll dept, and paycheck delivery company.
I have noticed that Nov would be 5 payday month (5 fridays) now just three check month.
Glad, I still have auto-deposit !
