Comment on Should I quit my monthly expenses for alcohol?

Perhaps they confused yearly with monthly.

Reminds of a funny story. Back when I was reviewing the contract for my current job, I noticed the HR lady confused my yearly salary with monthly. That meant they were going to pay me almost $100k per month if that contract was signed!

I pointed out the mistake three times and she insisted the contract was correct. I had to contact a company director to get it corrected.

  If I didn’t, they would have figured it out before my first payment and I’d be fired on the spot without receiving a single penny.

    You still get that 1 paycheck which would be the size of yearly salary, especially if you can prove you made effort to confirm the amount prior to signing.

Clerical errors like that in contracts are typically not binding.
