"What time do CEOs wake up?"

Going strictly by alarm settings, the guy who delivers our newspaper should be the head of Goldman Sachs.

 

I'd like to know what happens if the President has to take a crap. Something like that can throw the entire schedule off.

 

They're SOOO SOOOO HAAARRD WORKING!!!

THEY DESERVE EVERYTHING THEY GET!!

They are the Job Creators!! They are The Makers!!!

 

I used to get up at 3:30 am for work.

 

My father gets up at 3:45 in the morning, and doesn't get home from work until 7:30-8 at night. He basically works in a split shift.

And yes, he works in a union job.

 

Split shifts sound like the worst thing ever.

 

He's done it for over 20 years, so I have a feeling he's used to it by now.

 

Rub a little dirt on it ...

 

I look forward to the stories about the CEOs who roll out of bed at 9 a.m. for a massage and whirlpool bath, walk into the office at 11:30, spend the next couple hours getting BJs under the desk from their EEs, break at 2 for lunch, step back to the office at 3, then get chauffeured out to the golf course to wrap up the day. In the evening of course it's filet mignon, caviar and champagne and more BJs.

All this for a mere $10 million a year.

 

Don't work for an afternoon newspaper then.

 

I did it at an afternoon paper. Not much fun, although sometimes it was nice to be able to walk around in the late a.m.-early afternoon while everyone else was at work.

 

I doubt I could get back in the business now even if I wanted to, I've been out for five years.
