@Pieman42: Amoni's comment is a great copy of Monty Python's 'Lookshery, lookshery, we lived in a shoebox in the middle of the road.' And a great copy it is.
Well Amoni, the difference there is that I'm telling the truth! And yeah, there was mandatory overtime at that place, too. Time and a half, but it meant 1 or 0 days off in a given week. Joy O joy.
