    Probably the EE, because the ME job opens up almost as much as the SE job.

    Given where you work, I must say I'm surprised you don't at least get comp time for going over 40.

    Oh, I get comp time. I have about 12 days right now. But when do I use it? Hell, I didn't even get all my vacation time in last year.

    Good point. I hate "use it, or lose it" policies.

    And those 12 are for actual full days I work that are labeled as off days. My "days off" are Tuesday and Wednesday, usually, but those are spent on 3-4 teleconferences, setting up interviews and writing my Friday story.

    So, you know, it's all in how you look at it. I've never expected to get paid for what I work.

    Well then you are just getting screwed with your pants on. Either that or you are just blindly dedicated to THE COMPANY!

    I just worked 19 hours, Quarking 24 pages and doing many other jobs. Will I get paid for all that time? Who knows.

    They're also the only paper that requests to be sent only .txt files. GHETTO. :p

    Got to be Martinsville. They're hiding because they get bashed so much - deservedly so - on this board.

    Ginny Wray is a tough bird. Nuff said. Heed the warnings if you can.

    I second that. She works six days a week about 80 or so hours. That place is her life.
