Compensation Pros, Duck Hunting and Averages

Did you hear the one about the compensation professionals who went duck hunting? 

They see a duck in the air and both shoot.  The first comp pro's shot is 20 feet wide to the left.  The second comp pro's shot is 20 feet wide to the right. 

Two comp pro's give each other high fives, because on average they hit the duck.

Which invites the question... if wage growth is (say) 3% per year, why not raise your wages (on average) by 0.25% per month?
