POOT - An end to overtime?
-
It's 5.00pm and the office is full. Everyone's got to get that one last email done, or kick off the backup process or something. Everyone's still here....trains are half empty, rush hours are waiting to start - the bars are deserted and quiet. Still in the office - just ten minutes more. Sound familiar? Perhaps you need to join "POOT". POOT stands for "p**s off on time" and its a campaign to get employees to realise that they don't have to do the extra ten minutes every night, that employers never reward that kind of mindless toil and that they will miss those accumulated minutes when they are retired. I'd tell you how it works, but it's 5.00pm - and I am out of here! '--8<------------------------ Ex Datis: Duncan Jones Merrion Computing Ltd

Or you could simply go into business for yourself and work any time you feel like it. (which in effect turns out to be pretty much all the time and much longer hours than when working for someone else, but somehow it's different when it's yourself making that decision). ------------

but somehow it's different when it's yourself making that decision Because you know that you get all the rewards and consequences for the hours you put in. Sean Winstead

Personally, I have two options: leave at 5:00pm, sit in rush hour traffic and arrive home at 6:15, or leave at 5:30 and arrive home at 6:00.
:wtf: That's some messed up traffic! -- I am on fire. Do you need a light?

> That's some messed up traffic! :-D Tell me about it. Traffic is such an unpredictable thing; the patterns (when there are any) never seem to make much sense. Where are the Sim guys when you need them? I'd love to see an accurate traffic simulation just to try to understand the behavior...
