        aye, and you tell the youngsters of today that, and they won't believe you....they won't! Albatross!

        I still remember having to write your own code in FORTRAN rather than be a cut and paste merchant being pampered by colour coded Intellisense - ahh proper programming - those were the days :)

            I usually work around 17 hours per day, but only get paid for 8 of those.

              I work in a call center. I work 8hrs ± .5 right now. But I work 6 days a week. So that amounts to nearly 48 hrs per week!!!

                    ouch, I at least get compensated for my hours. There is the rare occasion of no-comp, but it is rare. Now time-and-a-half is only for hourly workers, but there is straight time compensation for salaried personnel on approved hours, on overtime approved jobs.

                      Why would you assume that? I see no reason to get paid for work I do at home (e.g., father, husband, landowner). ;)

                        LUXURY!!! I get up, every morning at 12:01am lick the road clean for breakfast, go to work with no breaks, I get off work 23 hours and 58 minutes later, go to sleep at 12 while my neighbor beats me to sleep with a bread knife. ( or something like that )

                          good one.... I guess I jumped to the conclusion because my last job I did work 19.5 a few times (and then only paid for 8). Here I have pulled 16-18 on VERY rare occasions (but compensated fully). But I will admit, you caught me. :) I guess that brings my hours to about the same with only 10-12 being compensated.

                                    I am at work for 8.5 hours minus 1 hour for lunch. I only work about 4-5 hours per day though.

                                    I didn't get any requirements for the signature

                                      Did someone recently ask this question? I am expected to work 40 but we have flexible working hours. As long as the work is done and you work four hours you can leave and not take vacation time. At quarter end we may have to put in some extra time though.

                                          I typically work 9-12 hours/day on weekdays, and 5 hours/day on weekends.
