Meet Trevor, the salary-tracking piggybank. Just tell him your salary and he'll show a counter of how much you've earned each day.  He's cute as a button and loves to take naps when you're not working (it's hard keeping track of salaries all day). Ever been sitting in a boring meeting at work, wishing you were somewhere, ANYWHERE else? Trevor can't get you out of the meeting, but he can show you how much you've made while pretending to pay attention to Karen's presentation.  With widgets and Apple Watch support, you don't even need to open SalaryPig, just pop Trevor onto your home or lock screen and you're all set.
