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.
CNN............Are you really that surprised?
