Default According to this article we only work 23.5 hours a week!

This is such a joke! I was looking at an article that was highlighting jobs that require less than a 40 hour work week.

Apparently they have no idea about sitting reserve 8 hours a day for 5 days at a time...or overnights...or delays...or anything really.

Sure, we can't truly consider time sitting in a hotel "labor", but if I count the amount of time I'm away when working its WELL over 40 hours a week!

Jobs with under 40-hour work weeks - CNN.com

Also our annual earnings are $119k. Anybody at a regional making that yet? I'm not. My pay equals about $12.50 an hour when sitting reserve.
