In *Alien*, to escape the alien, Ripley sets the Nostromo to self destruct, meaning to leave via the escape in the shuttle. After killing the alien, Ripley and Jones enter cryo-sleep and are eventually found after 57 years. During this time she was presumably still on the company payroll. Did she receive any back pay, or was it all swallowed up paying for the Nostromo, *including* payload of course?
