Believe it or not, I put in 4.5 hours YESTERDAY (started at 5:00 am so I was good and hungry when the turkey came out of the oven!!!!). Tripple time though, work 4.5 get paid for 13.5. Not a bad deal considering all I would have been doing for those hours was sleeping.
Today (Friday) I worked for 5 hours at double time and a half. 5 hours work, 12.5 hours pay. Again, all I would have been doing is sleeping anyway. Took a nap this afternoon....dinner with the girlfriends famdamly tonight. Should be interesting.....most of them don't really get along.
I'll do the same thing pretty much between the holidays. I have the whole week off with pay, but will go in and work anyway. Make good money, and the plant is pretty laid back during that week too.
