Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
As it is, I still don't get why it was so important to shut down the Port of Oakland last week--a whole bunch of union members lost pay that day because they couldn't work.

Judging from my ex-boss, Exempt employees go and get their hair cut in the middle of the day or whenever they like. "I'm off to get my hair cut," she'd say breezily and waltz out at 3pm.
(I realize most Exempt manager types wind up working way more than 40+ hours a week, but that was not how she was finessing the system.)
Hair theft is actually a big thing, apparently. There was also a bunch of feather shortages this summer - I read an article about fly fisherman not able to fish because of that hair fad. (Do I have a cite? Nope. Bad librarian.)
