DSI set that stuff up as a trap. Like, it was a psychological thing. All the IT dorks had fair game to it, but if someone in sales was seen playing with that stuff, it meant to them that you didn't give a crap about your job.

I work 7am to 5:30pm, 5 days a week. I also log on remotely sometimes in the evenings/weekends to answer emails and generally catch up on crap that I didn't get done while at the office. While the hours seem pretty long (10-10.5 hrs/day), it really isn't terrible at all...casual environment, beer friendly, ping pong/shuffleboard/darts/pool/etc in the office

Do you count the times you are playing ping pong/shuffleboard/darts/pool/etc as "work" hours?

i would assume he does when he plays against his co-workers. when he gets his ass kicked at ping pong by me, i highly doubt he reports that

has anyone looked at the details of the new work hours thing?  i'd like to get paid overtime.  someone on the radio was talking about it was fairly complicated.

raising the ot exemption salary level from 26k to 51k. i dont think the rule is very complicated, but employers will be doing complex backflips to avoid whatever they can

it sounded more complicated than that.  like above 51k salaried are also entitled to overtime if they aren't truly managers.

I do not charge work hours when we're doing that sort of thing...but it's usually on Friday afternoons anyways

TBT I believe that I still lead the series for the record...

I don't know if this is hilarious, but ever since my coworker moved next to me in his new cubicle, he's played the "Knights tale" soundtrack everyday, all day, for the last 3 weeks.  :curse: I mean, I don't know where that movie hold with him in his heart, but I'm about to tell him Heath Ledger is dead.

that is hilarious.

they should give the person on the other end of the call control over the treadmill speed.
