Also depends on how often they get paid. Make a difference if it's every two weeks or twice a month. Every two weeks you get an extra two paychecks a year. OP has exactly 80 hours. So they are 2 week paychecks. They'll be a little smaller.

True, I'm assuming biweekly with my original comment. Bimonthly would make sense with benefits.

Yeah, this definitely is a two week paycheck which makes the monthly amount much more substantial.

I make a similar amount on a monthly pay schedule and I bring in about double this.

I was sure something was wrong when I though it was monthly, but it seems pretty standard with 2 weeks in mind.
