It's Payday!

Today is Friday. For many people in the U.S. that means it's payday--the day employees get their check from their employer. Most are paid every other Friday. Some get a check every Friday. It's also the 15th of August. Some companies pay employees just twice a month, on the 15th and on the last day of the month. Bars and restaurants are very busy on this day because of this. People are more likely to spend money in the middle of the month than at the end of the month because they've already paid their rent or mortgage. Of course, like everything else, this observation doesn't apply to everyone. �
