Translation:

  • Clover: The life of a manager is great!
  • Rhea: Why’d you say that?
  • Clover: Look at that… Just sleeping but gets a 6-digit salary!

You might have seen your manager “resting their eyes” or “praying” a few times. Ever wondered how much are they really responsible for when they sleep on the job?

Fresh Grad / < 1 Year Experienced Employee: PhP10,790

1-4 Years Experienced Employee: PhP16,500

Average agent level salary: (10,790 + 16,500)/2 = PhP13,645

Average Number of agents per team: 12

Supervisors’ Average Salary per month: PhP17,000

Average Number of Supervisors per Manager: 5

Managers’ Average Salary per month: PhP31,000

13,645 x 12 = 163,740

17,000 x 5 = 85,000

163,740 + 85,000 + 31,000 = 279,740

Since there’s 12 months in a year…

279,740 x 12 = PhP 3,356,880

The average manager in the Philippines is responsible for PhP3,356,880 ($78,945.41) of the company’s yearly budget to be sleeping on the job. Some managers working for bigger companies are responsible for possibly double or triple this amount.

Imagine that.

Right. I agree with this. Managers should never take their time just sitting in front of their stations just reading emails.
