Netizens clear the confusion over train specialist salaries

The post quickly gained traction on social media, with viewers correcting her, saying this was the annual salary. According to Glassdoor, a Transnet train control officer's monthly pay is 31K. While Indeed says an employee at the state-owned enterprise earns at least 30K a month. Meanwhile, Payscale reports that a Transnet Freight Rail Employee could earn up to 37K monthly. The only conclusion is this payslip in the video is either fabricated or the owner of the payslip is quite seasoned in this field.
