You keep track of hours? Aren't you salaried professionals? Who cares how long you work if you get your work done.
- collyw 12y agoI do. If my work refuses to pay me more than for 40 hours, why should I work more? I already have enough work for 3 people.
- wcummings 12y agoBecause you're not hourly. You're not paid to work for 40 hours, you're paid to fulfill certain obligations and be held accountable for them. That means sometimes you might have to work more than 40 hours, and sometimes you might work less. This is not unique to software, you might have to wake up and fix something in the middle of the night the same way a doctor might have to take a call w/ a patient on a weekend when they're on-call. It's part of the job.
- collyw 12y agoSue if they want that sort of commitment, they can pay me for it. At the moment they are getting a good deal with the crappy salary I am getting.
