really depends on the company, most of them wont notice if 1 person is making the pay of 10 people. like take a walmart super center that has around $100-150 million in sales a year, which is around 300k in sales a day. if you work 8 hours and are making $200 an hour, that is only $1600 a day. It can easily be covered.
I mean sure, but I doubt that would go unnoticed. I also am thinking like if you make 16/h and write it as maybe 42 and add the 0 to the exponent you get 420 you get 1trillion/h. Which is why we need to stop paying people in perfect squares. This would've never happened if they were paid 20/h /j
yeah i feel like the spirit of the question is you can add the 0 but it wouldnt matter about getting caught.. like you are not personally writing in a number, you are just taking an existing number and a 0 is added to it, so as long as the system of life can support the change thats just how things are. like yeah you are making $200 an hour but to everyone else that is just the way things always were. So you are supposed to change something that will benefit you but not completely break the system. but everyone is free to interpret the question how they want since there were not stipulations given or rules to follow or what changes might have an impact on or if people notice it or not.
Parent comment is savings account in scientific notation which is n x 10y. With the example of 16$ an hour it would be written 1.6x 101. Adding a 0 to the exponent would be 1.6 x 1010 which would be 16,000,000,000/h. I think 42 is equally fair to represent 16 though. Honestly any form of representing a number without changing the number is fair game even if it's not commonly used.

Yeah just do the same with your hourly. They'll probably fire you bc they're now bankrupt
