The Ecstasy of being paid?

Payslips are funny things.

We yearn for them, and yet when we have them in our hands, we don't often know quite what to do with them.  How ever much we said we look forward to them, you would be surprised how many immediately goes into the bin. 

Employers are legally obliged to give their employees an itemized payslip whenever we are paid (15 days after pay day in my case) and while I was expecting an email on day 15, I finally received it - in paper form today. 

Am I supposed to feel more of the ecstasy of being paid, with that piece of paper as opposed to an email, when all I could convince myself was paper payslips are such a thing of the past?    

So long as I see my bank account stays black - that's all matters.
