College is meant to weed the good from the bad out. If everyone can get a degree with ease than what exactly does it stand for?!?Quote:

Ty, I'm on spring break. You're the one posting during work all day.Quote:

Still 103 hours left over each week. Factor in sleep 7 hours a night and you still have 54 hours to chill, or about 8 hours a day.
Hmmm... 8 hours a day to relax AFTER factoring in studying time..
I'll take that.
Excuse me????Quote:

Business owners work a lot. My dad seems to be the exception as he works about a 6 hour day. But this is definitely not typical.
So you're telling me you're up at midnight answering email and working Sundays and you're not clearing more than 40 hours? That's a pretty sweet deal that you have them.
At both of the companies I have interned at, the guys making booku bucks are working long, long, long hours. Always there before I get in, and leave later than I do.
My boss, his bosses, and his bosses' boss are always at work by 7, and I have never seen them leave before 6 once. I work early and late daily because I leave for a few hours at least every day for class.
I guess it's different with every company, but I am still skeptical. 45 hours for a director is pretty damn short.
Same here. I don't like school work but I love making money so I will work 100 hour weeks if I would get an hourly rate to do so.Quote:

Looks matter very little. I don't appreciate the judgement and would think better of you than that. The fact of the matter is you don't know anything about me other than what I say on here, which is mostly to stir the pot, and from our brief encounter where I was very quiet and reserved.Quote:

Both of us are very self confident.
I think its ridiculous for you to make a statement like that. I would think that you would be smart enough to realize that sometimes two people just work.
And for some people, they'd rather work less hours, earn a little less money, just so they can do those little things.Quote:

I thought implication was that a woman had to have low self-esteem to be with Partial. :lol:
I think it works best as a joke.
Yes, that is the benifit of being judged on production not hours. And, having freedom at my job.Quote:

BTW, your logic leaves a bit to be desire. You've already told us that you can work and study and have the weekends free...so, your 8 hours a day is now, like usual..a change. Sorry.
So, in efffect you have 6 hours during the 5 days to "chill." In that 6 you'll have to shower/clean yourself. Eat some sort of food, do some errands, etc.
And, of course, you've factored in NO TRAVEL time between work and school.
Man, you are an idiot.
People that need to tell a message board all their attributes and how confident they are...well, they don't come off very confident.Quote:
