Unions got shit to do with it, the legislation does. If you don't pay for overtime, as designated in the contract, in a decently civilised country, say Germany, Finland, US or whatever and the officials get you for that, you're up for court and fines. If you're in a country where contract breaches don't mean jack, then that's a different story.

Except thats not my day job. And I'm not a graphic designer, I'm an illustrator.
That's what I meant. If you had, say, an engineering degree, you wouldn't be selling phones ^^

Because we can!

Or maybe I would be. Having a certain degree doesn't guarantee anything.

Also, I wasn't complaining about anything to do with my job. I was merely saying its not as simple as you think it is. Which lo and behold, 2 other people have said too!

It's the unions that get the legislation through.

Here in the US most Salary positions don't have to pay overtime unless specified, but that does not rule or other bonuses they can give if you go out of your way to help out.

I'm not talking about the work legislations I'm talking about contract legislation, saras. Sure, union countries have a huge work legislation but a non-union country like the US will still fuck a company ten times over if your contract has overtime pay and you're not paid. Western countries don't take that well to contract breaches.  ;)

It's your job to make sure that if you work overtime, it's in your contract.

Guys stop freaking me out about work... I get that the job climate is not ideal but stahp it =\
There must a be a reason for tanking things. And all must be in certain balance.
But what that balance is, must depend only on you, nobody else.

Everyone on the Internet is opposite sex of what they claim, and all kids are the FBI. Didn't it go like that?

I don't trust any of you, fools!

hah, yeah. That's why I put "real female girl" cause the whole... girl = G.I.R.L = guy in real life thing. Having to add all of that is actually kind of an inside joke from this game I use to play. :P

I thought it was "all girls online are either guys or FBI agents" or something like that. Though I think rather than FBI it should be Perverted-Justice.

I should think of something more interesting to put there though. Hmm~!

You stop being a girl after you've evolved into a woman silly.  :P

See, now that one's debatable! Do you turn into a woman with age, or do you turn into a woman when you have sex, or is it some other arbitrary thing?

I'd say it's when your body is grown enough.

...I for sure would never grow up to be a man if the mental side was counted.  ;D

I dunno. Woman sounds too mature and old for me. I'll probably still go by girl even when I'm old and decrepit. Which... hopefully never happens!

That's what I thought, she's like 20-24 ................... ...... Or he.

The sex part would be popping that cherry thus turning you into a real woman. Wait, ... no. Just leave your quote as it is. I do laugh at it once a while, at least with several other quotes under avatars from other people.

Exercise and eat healthy. Or you can do jack shit and your body will degenerate and become ugly, fat, decrepit .. whatever .. Come to think of it, I remember you mentioned that you do exercise.
