Not quite as short as traditional bankers' hours, 9 to 3, but very civilized compared to the average worker in the private sector. They get better health benefits and better pension plans, too. All paid for by our taxes.

I worked for the Post Office one summer as a temporary job. The rule book for postal clerks was thousands of pages long. That is what you can expect, not that anybody there read it. 😱

I had to keep take of how much i spent on chemcials and what percent were used in what experiments. I had to keep track of all the safety and fire hazards they posed and what I did to minimize those risks. I had to keep track of the experiment itself, all the instrumentation used and ..... well you get the idea. 😛

 

[milagros317]
