I too work outrageous hours but in a way I'm lucky a lot of times I get to test the shifters I make IN MY CAMARO, not sure if it's work or play though.

Whats today? My last full day off (8hrs) was New years. I would of worked that, but they didn't offer it. I love OT. One day, I might take a day off.. Hell, I might take a vacation..

My name is Lori and I am a workaholic!! With this being hockey season and we also house a Division 1 men's basketball team (NC State) here in our arena - so I put in 60-75 hrs p/week depending on our schedule. The crew just removed the ice as the circus (ice can't support the weight of the elephants) is coming Wed-Sun!! Five days of my life that I will never get back. ha ha

No overtime pay for me (Salary) - but I do have a 2SS/RS as my daily driver which just makes my 35 mile commute!!!

Working full time + owning my own construction business + coaching little league can be a little taxing some days BUT the Retirement from my Day job in 5 years, the enjoyment of building things, the smiles of the kids make it all worth while.

Then comes my wonderful car...................I drive it one day a week to work when the weather is nice, oh how I look forward to that day, especially at quitting time when I know I will be taking the loooooong way home. Hit the gargae door, push the unlock button and it lights up as it it is saying hello friend, as he cranks, the tune echo's off the garage walls in perfect harmony as 463 hp sign their song as the cam hits it's perfect notes. Oh what a joy.

I'm salaried, so the number of hours I work doesn't change the pay. I work long hours because my boss is a beeyatch who refuses to let me hire extra help. Looking for a new job as we speak...
