How much did your buddy claim he was imputed? ....because frankly the math doesn't work. Regardless, imputed income doesn't affect your pay until 3 months after the charges are incurred. Furthermore, a charge in a given month is divided into two parts across two pay periods.
I'm NOT defending Atlas. We have a paltry contract and crap working conditions but to claim that one would pay to work here is unethical.
The proof is in the putting and I will happily stand corrected with numbers that back up that claim, but until then its just blowing smoke.
