RE: A good idea, flipped out at my boss today. We will see if tomorrow is my last day, thank god

And when the Obama Admin wants employers to start PAYING people on 'salary' who are working 60 hours per week, you'd think a 10 mile diameter ASTEROID was heading for Earth.

When I worked, SALARY people who really put in a lot of extra time were given 'comp' days. Just don't show up!

In California you have 3 categories of employ. Salary EXEMPT. Salary NONexempt. HOURLY.
I was Salary Nonexempt, got paid hourly and had a few other bennies. Nothing special and I could be fired easily since California is an 'at will' state.

One company in the Semiconductor industry was known for giving an employee a MONTH off with pay after 10 years employ. This in addition to regular vacation benefits.

Me? When I quit, I had about 500 hours in my vacation bank.
Too much is never enough
