If both parties thought it said $800, why are they going to court about it?

A contract is an agreement between parties. Parties are free to agree to changes to the contract.

I think they are an example, the problem here is (I believe):

* Both parties (AMZ & Employer) signed up to a bonus % in the contract

* There was a document that stated % was equivalent to $ which was miscalculated

* Employer agreed to pay whatever the % in the contract was, employee believed they were getting the $ in the estimate.
