'As a joke I put in... two extra zeros': Trucker gets paid $1500 an hour to unload his own trailer

This person managed to make a true American dream come true: making four figures per hour.

Making $1500 per hour is something that most people dream about, but never achieve. Just think of what you could do with that kind of money. First, you could buy and eat probably like ten burritos. Then, you could buy a new game console. Then, you take all your friends to the movies and to laser tag. Then, once your first day of fun is over, you start saving up for down payments on houses or cars. Life could be so simple and perfect if you made five figures per day.

This guy got to experience every worker's dream. They share that their secret to success was seeing their $15/hour wage, and just popping two zeros onto the end. That way, when they had to do the part of the job they didn't like (unloading boxes), the on-site manager would realize what a ridiculous fee it would be, and wouldn't ask them to do that. Going from $15 per hour to $1500 per hour is just so righteous. Even if only for an afternoon, this person got to save for vacation and savor every second of work (because they'd be making 41 cents per second, or $25 per minute. Yes!!! Yes!!!).

Next up, these college students were left in the cold all winter long, so they finally decided to sue their landlord.
