We’re Working 13 Months for the Pay of 12

You ever feel tired for no clear reason?
Like you worked hard all year… and somehow still owe the calendar money?

Yeah. Same.

So let’s talk about something nobody warns you about in school, employee orientation, or those “we’re a family here” meetings.

There are 12 months in a year.
Everyone agrees on that. No debates. No riots.

There are also 52 weeks in a year.
Again—solid math. Verified. Trusted since forever.

Now here’s where things get suspicious.

If each month averages 4 weeks, that means:
12 months × 4 weeks = 48 weeks

But wait…
There are 52 weeks in a year.

So where did the other 4 weeks come from?

Exactly.

🎉 Congratulations. You’re working a 13th month—unpaid. 🎉

No bonus.
No extra vacation.
Not even a pizza party.

Just vibes and burnout.

Somehow, through corporate wizardry and calendar sorcery, we all collectively agreed to work an extra month every year and never bring it up again. HR calls it “standard.” Accountants call it “fine.” Employees call it “why am I so tired in February?”

And don’t worry—no one’s fixing it.

Because if we did, meetings would be longer, emails would multiply, and someone would suggest a “task force” to study the problem for three years.

So instead, we drink coffee.
We nod.
We say things like, “It’s been a long year,” in March.

This video isn’t here to fix the system.
It’s here to point at the math, laugh nervously, and ask the real question:

👉 If we’re working 13 months…
👉 Where’s the 13th paycheck?

Someone call HR.
We’ve got questions.
