Shit. Even if one is in an "exempt" position, aren't there some legal limits? Much ~ma, Toddson.
Mal: So we run. Nandi: I understand, Captain Reynolds. You have your people to think of, same as me. And this ain't your fight. Mal: Don't believe you do understand, Nandi. I said 'we run'. We.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: San Francisco, May 19-21, 2006! Everything else, go here! Swag!

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I'm taking time out from work to play on the board for a while. The real killer is that there's one department in my office that has first call on any and all resources - their staff spend a lot of time sitting around and chatting, going out for long lunches and cigarette breaks. And I'm consistently putting in nine-hour days (which adds up after a few months), working at least one Sunday a month, and my boss has been trying to get more out of me.
I think I need a new job. Hell, I KNOW I need a new job.
How's the job market in SF?

It's been getting better. What kind of work are you in?

I've been in the nonprofit area for a long time, working for small to smallish associations doing graphic design, designing and running the web site, some editing for the monthly journal, and a little low-level tech support (a large portion of it is making sure everything's plugged in and turned on).
I'm also getting tired of DC - the heat, the humidity, the insane costs, the public transit system that seems to be staggering under the load, the stodginess.
I checked the find your spot web site ... they keep telling me I should move to Milwaukee.

The insane costs are here, too. Here's a site for higher education jobs. I know there are sites for non-profit jobs but I don't know the names/URLs. [link]

Toddson! You must come the the F2F. It's not negotiable. The word non-profit does not mean "take advantage of the people willing to work hard."

Thanks - I'll have to start doing some serious looking.

Goodnight sweet Buffistas - I'll go home and dream of you!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
The game itself? It's leisurely compared to other professional sports.
Yeah, right. Have you ever seen cricket? Baseball is cricket with ADHD.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Cricket isn't a sporting event.
Cricket is a military campaign with starched white underpants.
