Mon-Fri : whenver I want, but basically 930-530  (occasionally more, occasionally less)
Sat/Sunday (and evenings): whatever is needed to get the week's work finished

Vacation: supposedly 10 personal/sick days on top of the university holidays (which I work anyways because FINALLY there's nobody else around!)

Pay: salaried.  you can't get a 40 hour week anyways when 8-12 hours a week are tied up in meetings/presentations/phone conferences.   You work till you get what you need to get done done

Benefits: about 75% premium paid of best offered health insurance (basically spend nothing more than $20 for anything ever in network) for me and sal,  free bus/shuttle pass, great internet conxn for surfing around during breaks, subsidized software costs

Days:  M-F with plenty of Sa-Su.
Hours: 7:00-6:00 although last night it was 8:00 and I'm still here right now.
Weekends:  As the job requires, and it does.
Holidays:  After a base salary I bill hourly.  If I don't work, I get less.
Vacation:  See holidays.
Paid: See holidays.

SBO-ship can be nice and it can be brutal.  Yes, you get to call the shots but you're the one who pays if you make the wrong call.  Oh, and never forget, your boss is a complete tool.   Grin

I tell my son all the time that school is his "job" and I'm the guy who pays his wages.  If he tries hard and/or does well, life is good.  If not, hit the soup line brother.

7 on 2 off.
8 on 4 off.

My shift is either 3:30pm to 12:30am, or 9:30am to 6:30pm.  I get one of three weekends off, and that one is a four day weekend (Friday to Monday). 

Because of this shift rotation, I get tons of opportunities to golf during the week.  I rarely, if ever, golf on weekends.

Yep.  Thanks.  Cool.

Was just curious.  The H.C.O. that I have worked in/with for most of my career, sold a "name" out west.  Colorado, and wherever else.  I just wondered if you were part of that.  Health One/ Health Span.  Here it is now:  ALLINA.
