Does he get two paychecks?

• EliRivers 7y ago
  He gets paid the daily rate for his rank (and any applicable modifiers) for each day on duty. So if he spends a weekend at 77 HQ or some training location or other such, on duty, he'll get two days' pay for that (potentially a smidge more if he can claim travel time on the Friday, but you get the idea). Also, reservists attract a tax free bounty each year if they complete their agreed training requirment.

    That makes complete sense for a reservist with a day job. I got the impression that this guy is doing his military psyops duty by working at Twitter, thus doing both jobs at once.

      > I got the impression that this guy is doing his military psyops duty by working at Twitter, thus doing both jobs at once. I think the article tries to create that impression, but it doesn't actually say so. Maybe it's just an attempt to make the story more sensational for clicks.

        I guess today I’m the victim of the psyop, heh.
