it's not like there is swag one could bring back from burning man, right? (I've never been)
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Two weeks straight? The swag would have to be thousand dollar bills.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Was the answer:
"hell no!"?
Or
"I will cut you!"?
It was "sure, if the boss says it's OK" which is basically the same as A) above.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Was the answer:
"hell no!"?
Or
"I will cut you!"?
Or at least, "You owe me!"?

Yeah I mean I've worked longer for real work emergencies, or quite frankly for fairly big overtime pay. But it is really too much for someone who is not a close dear friend, and even then it depends.

And CA labor laws means the boss might put the foot down. More than 8 in a day or 40 in a week is OT. If he's working 2 shifts, the second shift would be mostly OT. So then the boss is paying someone to be on vacation, and 1.5 paying someone to fill in.
When is Burning Man?? Is this all last minute planning? if so, bad co-worker! No cookie!

He's salaried and violates CA labor laws pretty regularly (often working 7 days in a row) but yeah. I'm sure coworker didn't ask for it off in advance because the boss would have said no to anyone wanting to take Labor Day weekend off.

Gronk. I really didn't have time to take the nap I just took. Too much to do too little time left to do it.
