Maybe, maybe not. I suspect that most will answer the simple "How much do you make?" question with either their pay rate or some version of what their paycheck says, be it bi-weekly, bi-monthly, monthly, or annual amounts or gross/net. Almost certainly, if you change the question you've got a better chance of getting a different answer.I believe you should change that first word in your comment from most to some.
Believe it or not, but US (original, not LCC) employees have been through all the cuts (twice) that others have including terminated pensions that most other carrier's employees didn't end up with, but walk up to most any employee and ask that one simple question and you're very unlikely to get a dissertation on all the various costs the company incurs by having that employee on the payroll.
Let me just ask you - how much does your company pay in unemployment compensation contributions for you being on the payroll? What is your company's health/dental cost for you specifically - not the average but for you specifically?
