The prove of Dilbert`s “Salary Theorem”
Some fun stuff to start this new week! ![]()
Dilbert`s “Salary Theorem” states that ‘Engineers and scientest can never earn as much as business executives, sales people, accountants and especially liberal arts major’ . This is a pretty good stuff for pyhsics enthusiast or engineers to be. Behold the truth of the jobmarket:
Postulate 1:Â Knowledge is Power ; (Knowledge = Power)
postulate 2:Â Time is money ; (Time = money)
as every of us know (with some physics background needed)
Power = Work / time
from postulate 1: Power=Knowledge,
So, Knowledge = Work / time
from postulate 2: time = money
then, Knowledge = Work / Money
Solving for money, then:Â Money = Work / Knowledge
Thus, Money is maximum when knowledge is minimum (given the work is the same)
And also, Money is infinitely available when the Knowledge approaches zero (as in Dilbert`s Boss)
This also explain why most of knowledge-able worker getting less money as more knowledge will bring less money corresponding to the resultant postulate.
Dilbert`s Salary theorem is once again approved.
