Dilbert's Theorem on Salary states that engineer and scientists can never earn as much salary as business executives and salespeople. This theorem can now be suppported by a mathematical equation based on the following two postulates: Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power Postulate 2: Time is Money As every engineer knows: Work -------- = Power Time Since: Power = Knowledge, and Time = Money, We have: Work --------- = Knowledge Money Solving for Money gives: Work -------- = Money 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.
