Speaking as someone currently unemployed… just set up a RAS solution (VPN, Terminal Server, etc) and go home on time.  With current broadband connectivity, you can connect from home just as fast as in the office.  Take the time to develop a good relationship with your boss, so when the layoffs come, you won’t be on the list J     -----Original Message----- From: Whitten, Gary [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 10:38 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: What do you get for Over Time   You are of course quite right...haven't gotten my caffeine drip in yet this morning. -----Original Message----- From: David James [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 10:44 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: What do you get for Over Time I think you meant salary.  I haven't been hourly in over 7 years... -----Original Message----- From: Whitten, Gary [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 9:35 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: What do you get for Over Time IT people are classified as hourly probably so we don't get rich and the companies don't go broke since we tend to be here longer than a lot of people.     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 10:33 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: What do you get for Over Time Check with HR.  I worked for a company that got penalized for making everyone a salaried employee - the gov't didn't like that.  At the time, the ruling was only management could be salaried, so if you didn't manage anyone, you had to be hourly. I've also heard that for some reason IT people also get to be classified as salaried, but things may have changed.  Another local company also got taken to court by it's employees which were primarily developers.  60-hour work weeks were "manadatory".  -----Original Message----- From: Mathews, James E. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 27, 2001 9:11 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: What do you get for Over Time   I was wondering if anyone has any policies set up for Over Time. The reason I ask is one of the other network guys and myself have put in about 40 hours over time this month and we receive nothing for it. Just wondering what policies are set up at other companies to compensate for over time. We consistently work about 8-12 hours over a month and we get no time off or anything for this. Management keeps telling us it is just part of our job and we can not get any comp time even though we are only scheduled for 40 hours a week.   http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm   http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ntsysadmin_list_charter.htm
