Episode Title Paycheck Deductions
Phrase stub
Text A "pay stub," in this podcast, is a document given to an employee that explains how the amount of his or her paycheck was calculated, showing how much money was deducted (subtracted) for different purposes: "Ingrid smiled when she saw her raise reflected on her pay stub." A "stub" is often the small piece remaining of a ticket or another piece of paper after it has been torn in two: "Keep your ticket stub, because you'll need to show it to get back into the movie theater if you leave to go to the bathroom." Or, "Ahmed keeps ticket stubs from all the concerts he has gone to." Finally, a "stub" is the short part that is left of a long, thin object after the rest of it has been used: "How can you write with such a short pencil stub?"
