Ex-pats in Nigeria may have got paid on time (surprise-surprise) but I hear that JNB staff had to wait until the 3rd - first time for them late payment
We did not get paid on time. It was late, on the 3rd. We celebrate that because that's not as late as it has been, so it's a big improvement. Things are all relative.
It looks like you got paid down south the same day.... Late.
