RE: A forty-hour week? Not in IT
You guys are way out on this one - Not to be funny but i do a 40 hour week plus an extra 10/20 hours work not because i want to but because i have no choice we are understaffed and deadlines have to be met or say by by to your job. Call it unfair if you wish but the reality of life is we will do what is required to make our working life easier, who want to go to work and have friction from managers (the people who decide if you stay or go??)and colleagues - everone reports to someone!! The other side to this is the people that just go home at the end of the day and forget everything, these people need to realise that to have a successful career you have to prove that you have drive to improve the business and make a difference and are not just there for an easy ride.....
Thats my way of looking at it... and from my experience thats life....
