As an aside, on the lower-end of the wage earner spectrum some of these people need time away from their job so they can get to their second low-wage job.

- johnward 13y agoThat is true, but generally in that position you are paid for overtime.
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoAs someone who has worked a fair amount of overtime, that extra pay is more than deserved. Working overtime drives up the cost to the employee of most things related to maintaining employment. Laundry? no time, send it to the cleaners. Lunch? No time to brown bag it, have to eat out. Supper? Same thing sometimes. Got a lawn? Better find someone to mow it. A lot of mundane things come unraveled when sustained overtime becomes a requirement.
