Over-Time King Is Back

They do, when they can, but they're all morons. They can't even get enough people to work OT. And when they do, they cancel. Work them to death all week, and expect them to do it again for 8 hrs.
I got the brains and seniority that I can get as much OT as I want, and not have to do my 40 hr a week job.

Tonight I'll be welding. Yesterday I changed hog knives and checked equipment settings.

Yes, I work too much. Yes, this is blog.

You know, I never though of what it might mean. But I think you could be right.

Co-pilot Chewie's BLog, hell date 10/6.
Completed another 5 hrs OT. No burns or singed hair.
Looks like I'll be getting in 35hrs per week for the next 3 weeks.
Two friends work with me. One will get around 31hrs a week. He's been doing that for several weeks. Hawaii vacation.
The other guy is looking at 25hrs a week.

Saturday ended my first week with 31hrs OT. Won't be working 12hrs on Saturdays. The changed one of the jobs back to Friday nights. I don't mind though, I was exhausted after doubling back Sat. morning for an easy 8hrs.

I'm an OT w h o r e too!

I used to work 2 hrs ot everynight, 4 hours in the summer months, PLUS Saturdays and the ocassional Sunday!

All the OT has dried up. Going on 1 year now with very little OT. Hoping when they implement fiber cable the OT will pick up again.

...is almost over.
I'll have 96 regular hours and 55.5 OT hours for this pay half.
That's 122.5 hrs OT for May. 300.5 hrs OT for the year. I hope the remainder of the year will be less OT hours.
Should be able to get some DVD box sets next week.

I put in 20hrs OT this weekend. And may get up to 8hrs in the morning.
Plan to get a minimum of 40hrs OT for this pay half.
That will help catch up on some bills, and have extra cash for the Portland convention next month.
Then at the end of next month I'll try for 40+hrs again for Xmas.
