Re: Complaining about work...

I'm fairly split on it.

On one hand, I think a 70 hour work week isn't something to complain about during a recession and with many unemployed.

On the other hand, I think thinking that way "Hey, be happy the overpaid CEOs deemed you worthy of a job" can very quickly lead to an erosion of workers rights and people settling for less and less.

TK is absolutely right, hell give me the job if you want to complain, I will work those hours and do "paid" overtime gladly.

I need money so I can afford a mortgage after I finish my military service anyway, I am going to college but I need something for money on the side too, keep complaining it just might open up a spot for this guy.

And once you injure yourself, they will find another guy to replace you while leaving you with the pleasure of trying to make them pay for your injury. It's only a 4 or 5 year battle these days

That's fine because medical injuries on most companies will cover them, it's not like you are working under the table, fix me up and send me back out there. They will more than likely have someone fill my position for the time being or just down right replace me, but I have no problem with that because I will go to the next company that's hiring, it's just business and the reason why I work is to so I can support myself and a family in the future. Also if you stay in shape and take of yourself the less health problems you will have down the road.

it may take 4 or 5 years in IL but not in most states. You get your state hearings and go on with it for the $$$. or go to court and be done with it. why piss ass around when you have options to go and collect.

I won't soon forget how LONG and HOT this summer was, that sure would suck being out in that all day long and then some. Those guys must have been covered in mosquito bites on a daily basis too.

I guess Frontier wants perfect lines so they can cap them later on

You can't make all the people happy all of the time. But it should be common sense to shoot for the majority.
