Pay by fiscal year
Total paid across all records in each year, overtime included, compared with consumer prices.
From FY 2017 to FY 2018, pay went down 89% while consumer prices went up 2%. After inflation, pay is down 89% (it fell behind inflation).
| Year | Paid | Change | Prices (CPI) | After inflation |

| FY 2018 | $3,777 | −89.1% | +2.3% | −89.4% |
| FY 2017 | $34,799 | — | — | — |
Each change compares a year with the one before. Large swings usually come from a partial year, extra hours or a change of job rather than a raise. Prices: Consumer Price Index (CPI-U, U.S. city average) from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, averaged July to June; FY 2026 uses 11 months because October 2025 was not published.
