I think you misunderstand what I said.  Let me clarify:

Suppose your company has two boxes to put money in.  One of them is
labelled "bud@mtek.com's salary".  The other is labelled "Everything
else".  Now, money that they put in the "Everything else" box cannot
also be in the "bud@mtek.com's salary" box.  This is what I meant when
I said, "Money that the company uses for restrooms, etc. (everything
except paying the employee's salary) is money that they cannot pay
you."
