Everyone who joins in that class action suit deserves a spanking, since they are clearly crybabies. TV production jobs not affiliated with a union are daily hires. They agree to work for a day in exchange for a flat fee. Sometimes, the day is 90 minutes long (I had that happen a few times). Most times, the days are between 12 to 18 hours long with no breaks (that is, after all, what the craft service table is for). On the other hand, if they win the lawsuit, I guess I should start one up against Dick Clark. By those standards, he owes me $2.1 million dollars... all for me. Typical day on "Your Big Break": Started at 6am and ended between 9 and 10 pm Typical day on any awards show: Started at 5am and ended between midnight and 2am the following morning -- Kevin M.
