I knew something was up when my wife told me on Fri morning that she checked her payslip and the salary credit amount in her bank account. She doesn’t usually get this excited about her monthly pay. I guess she’s become more appreciative of her salary that continues to be paid even though she’s at home with the baby on maternity leave.
But I have to admit this time is different for my wife. It includes her bonus, back pay and maternity cash benefit on top of her increased monthly salary from the bank. A decent haul and timely given that she just had the baby last month, we were celebrating our wedding anniversary over the weekend and Christmas & NY are coming up.
Once again, the pay gap between us is expanding with her in the lead. I enjoy the chase and will make my move in the next few years to close the gap....
