> DILBERT'S THEOREM ON SALARY
> Dilbert's Theorem on Salary states that engineers and scientists can never
> earn as much salary 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 Since Knowledge = Power, and
> Time = Money, we have:
> Knowledge = Work / Money Solving 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.
