I would have to pass out for longer than an hour (or stab someone) to even get a rise out of my boss.

But it's not ALL fun and games, and the money isn't as good as it used to be, so I guess it all balances out.
Well now I HAVE to ask...what is it that you do?

I guess I can't complain too much since I just started my annual six month vacation after working four whole days per week during the summer.

Oh, but what is worse than that is using your own camera gear for "other duties as assigned" and then breaking a $200 filter and them telling you they can't pay for it because you are not allowed to use personal property for work related business.
DAMN! Those M-F'ers!

Oh? I thought with a name like that he should get a Masters degree.
OMG!

You know, I knew someone that actually had a job like that. She was a manager and had 2 assistants, all salaried. They would each work 60 hours 2 weeks in a row, then take a week off. They rotated. I wanted that job so bad.
