How long have you had the job? You only get money every 24 hours. Nazotchi will show up and give you money. The "minimum wage" is 1,000 points, but if you work more it adds on. Hope I helped.
And the more skill points you have, the more you get paid (in my experience). So if you have a job that gives you funny skill points, for instance (eg. pilot job) then if you don't like playing the game for the job you can instead play the "apple" regular game to get funny skill points, and when you go to your job every 24 hours, you will be paid. That plus the money you get playing regular games=a lot.
If I said this in a confusing way, please say something!
