I was always lucky and never did any unpaid overtime. however I heard some horror stories about it from co-workers (one guy had unpaid overtime every day for half a year, because ... whatever). I do know that my luck will run out one day. I'm very assertive about doing overtime (maybe I'm overreacting, but it doesn't matter), so if I was forced to do it I would most likely quit the job or at least slow down and did other thing at work (maybe even play flash games).
I heard that some companies expect you to do more since you are paid more. How can you detect if company you are interviewing for do overtimes? one way be to just ask them, but they can lie (I do know some people that were lied to on interviews) or see you as not a team player since you ask about it (overtime does happen in normal companies, but its very rear). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
