That is in one pay peroid, or two weeks. About 45 hours a week average. 8 Hour days (1 hour for lunch makes it a 9 hour day) times 5 is 40 hours. They want an extra hour a day, possible more, or 5 hours on Saturday or Sunday. Some of the other people are doing this, and while they have a lower productivity than me, the PHB Managers seem to allow them to keep their jobs.

The UK sounds nice, but I have deep roots in the old USA in the area in which I live. My wife does not want to move, and I have friends and realtives here that I cannot do without.

If I move to the UK, I'd have to research my family tree and find lost relatives from Ireland or Germa y that might be living in the UK and then see if I can make a connection with them. Who knows, I could even be related to you? :)
