Dilbert's Salary Theorem
Dilbert’s Salary Theorem states that Engineers, scientists and analysts can
never earn as much as business executives and sales people. This theorem can
now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following two
postulates:
Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power.
Postulate 2: Time is Money.
|
As every engineer knows:
|
Power = Work / Time
|
|
and since:
|
Knowledge = Power
|
|
and
|
Time = Money
|
it is therefore true that Knowledge = Work / Money
Solving this equation for Money, we get:
Money = Work / Knowledge
Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, Money approaches infinity, regardless of the
amount of Work done.
Conclusion: The less you know, the more you make...
