A 50 hour week! Egads, where do I sign up?
I know at one point in my life I put in 100 hours a week for several
years. However it was partially choice and demands for the job.
Another point is that they don't get paid any OT. They also work in
an extremely politicized environment where VP's scream and curse at
each other and the name of the game is to screw your co-worker .

this in
at least 3 jobs I've applied for in Wisconsin. One job, after not
hearing anything for a while, I called and they finally emailed me
back saying they were going to make the position part time - 10 to 15
hours a week.

Eric,
I know one place that just increased the sysprog hours from 40 to (I
think) 50 a week. IRC correctly IBM did that as they are the
outsourcer.
