Judge (the guy who was in the room with Kavanagh and Ford when Kavanagh attempted to rape her) has released a letter to the senate via his lawyer saying he doesn't remember being at that party or ever seeing Kavanagh act like Ford describes, and doesn't want to testify in front if the committee.

They really need to find the two other people who were at that party. According to Ford they were significantly less intoxicated than Kavanagh and Judge, and as they're not implicated in an attempted rape they may be a lot more forthcoming. Not that a confirmation committee is the kind of place that actually seeks after truth.

Also, apparently a lawyer also contacted a bunch of senators claiming to represent Justice Dept employees who have information to share about Kavanagh and his relationship with Kozinski (former judge who resigned for among other things hosting porn on his website and sending links to it to clerks.)

If you're the owner of a business and are putting in >40hrs, good on you, that's your own place. If you're making wage or salary employees do that, you can go gently caress yourself.

I like my current project. Get 40 hours at least or you give up vacation/comp time. Work as many hours as you want and you’ll either get 1-to-1 comp time or your salary gets broken down to an hourly rate and you’ll get that for each hour over 40.

This is about the only scenario I can think of where I’m happy working over 40 hours. But even then I’m still not giving this company 70 hours a week. That’s why I didn’t go big 4.

gently caress that guy.

The paychecks are wicked if you're hourly. I had a really....really....really nice paycheck after working those two weeks even with the additional tax withholdings.

It was as a nurse, I think I walked on average 6-7 miles a day, so in two weeks totaling around 72-84 miles in a two week span.

But there are points in that time where you just wake up, go home and go straight to bed because you're physically and mentally just tired. Then the 1 day off you have in between is mainly just to gather your thoughts back up and realize you've pretty much been disconnected from the entire world. The only benefit to having this type of work schedule would be working two weeks straight and getting a HUGE reprieve from work to allow you to live a normal functional life without the hatred knowing that you just worked 6 days and have to work another 6 days with your day off.


Your day off, you end up being Jasper from The Simpsons after he froze himself and waking up a week later

My buddy worked 12 hours a day, 7 days a week on an oil rig in the gulf. Except he was only out there for 3 weeks at a time, and he got a month off when he got back, as well as making 6 figures. So, yeah, gently caress anyone that thinks that's a good labor model.

I used to do 10 hours a day 7 days a week, minimum, four months at a time. I would sleep for two or three days straight afterward.

I worked 32 hours in 2 days 2 weeks ago but that was a gas leak emergency. I got off easy cause my part was done "early", the welders and rest of the crew worked 26 hours straight after an 18 hour day the day before. The gas company also had 24h watch in effect so those guys were working 12 hour shifts making sure no one blew themselves up or if the leak got worse (it got A LOT worse the second day)
