FUCK YOU, you PUS DRIPPING ASSHOLE!

I work 12 hours Sat, Sun, Wed and Fri ALONE! Or more correctly as ONE of several nurses on staff. And I don't know the facilities too well or the population or especially the computerized charting tools. But I'm GONNA, because I can do anything a similarly talented human can do!

So go FUCK yourself in the ass with a razor wire wrapped telephone pole, you pus dripping fucker! :-(

Very last bit of advice from me, create a fake name for posting
this way. I already said it once. Use your real id for nice
friendly stuff.

So now, you're working 48 hours a week?

Not according to religion though. God created every darn thing

Confusing there.
First he works 3 12-hour days (Mon, Tue, and Thurs)
and now it's 4 12-hour days (Sat, Sun, Wed and Fri)

Most likely, his days will change occasionally.

John is working in healthcare now. Does this make him
a hero? That's the latest definition of the word.
The most misused word in modern history, imo.
Even grocery store clerks are heroes now.

[Taxed and Spent]

And the workers at Subway are Hero Heroes.

LOL. You know darn well they love that part. Not to mention

living in his house is worth more.

Perhaps he doesn't work the same days of the week every week.
Conjecture: Saturday was the previous pay period; Sunday, Wednesday,
and Friday were the current pay period. Perhaps he does work the
same days every week and it will be Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday
all the time, while that initial Saturday was a one-time thing.

I'm sure he'll keep us posted every time he works a shift. Who wants
to volunteer to track his time?

I realised one day when I noticed a usb stick lying on my desk, that

Scottish side demanded I find out how to put it to use :) I still
have a box of floppy disks, I think it's Best Buy that has an adapter

I have to agree with you there. Up here is seems that anyone who dies
while a member of the armed forces is called a hero. It could be someone
who was cut down while singlehandedly taking our a machine gun nest, a
guard at a monument who is murdered while on ceremonial guard duty at a
monument or a press officer who is a passenger in a jet aircraft that
crashes. No one seems to want to deny them the hero title by expecting
the deed to be above a certain bar, so they drop the bar and give it to
everyone.

There was an interesting case of inappropriately crediting someone as a
hero during the Gulf War. Jessica Lynch was supposed to have been a
hero who fought off ambushing insurgents until she was out of ammo or
the gun jammed. She was hauled off as a POW , raped and tortured and
then rescued by Special Forces Unit. The rescue was well documented for
the news audience back home as they moved in, kicking down doors and all
that gung ho stuff.

Jessica's personal story is quite different. The was a passenger in a
vehicle in a convoy that was lost and bumbled into a enemy position. She
was thrown out of the vehicle and broke her leg. The Iraqis took her to
a hospital and looked after her. They did not have the supplies or
facilities to look after her so they reached out to the Americans to
tell them to come and get her. They could have just driven up but they
had to make a story out of it and staged the phony rescue raid.


Jessica was a great American female hero when she came home, but the
story disappeared when she went public about what had really happened.

[Dave Smith]

My son has recently changed from 12 hour shifts to 10 hours. I am not
sure how the new one is working out but under the 12 hour shifts he was
all over the place. Sometimes he would have 6 12 hour shifts in a row
and then have more than a week off. Some weeks he would be bouncing from
one shift to another.

My 10 hour shifts were quite livable. Generally speaking, we worked a
week of days, a week of afternoons, a week of days, a week of afternoons
and then a week of midnights. If there were training courses or court
when we were scheduled for midnights we would change to days. I ended up
rarely working the graveyard shift.

We worked weekends maybe two days a month, but most of the time we had
three day weekends. My partner liked to have the Friday off with his
weekends and I preferred to have the Mondays off. It worked out well.

[Dave Smith]

You Scottish side should not want to waste the money to get what you
need to read those disks. They have probably deteriorated so much that
there will be very little left to me read on them. Any data files on
them might need the old software to read them.

I had enough trouble when I used 3.5 inch floppies for a backup program.
A few months later when I needed the back up some of the disks failed.

[Gary]

I still have both of my old Commodore computers in the original
boxes along with tape drive, 5.25 floppy drive, printer and all
the software I bought either in cartridges or what I wrote
myself stored on tape.

Someday, maybe hook one up to a tv and see if it still works.

When I worked my shifts were a month of T-F-S nights, then a month of T-F-S
days. Then I would roll to a month of M-T-W night shift with just Sunday
and half of Monday off. After that shift, it would be a month of M-T-W days.
Then 8 days off to start back again on a T-F-S night shift.

[Taxed and Spent]

None of that matters. He named the four days per week he works. But
apparently he is getting paid for three, and is thrilled with that. LOL

Maybe he didn't state what is really happening.

[graham]

Not so for me! The Geological Survey wanted some data from me that had
been saved on 5.25" floppies. Luckily I had kept the old computer (a
486) and retrieved it but I had to save it to a 3.5" so that a newer
computer could burn a cd that my Windows 10 machine would read. I could
have used yet another old computer to read that cd and save it to a
memory stick. As it happened, the data were saved using an obsolete
program and I had to get a special app written to read them.

[Cindy Hamilton]

He named four days that he worked. He never said that was his regular
schedule.

> But

He named four days that he worked, and they fell within a calendar week.
When most people (and I realize that Kuthe isn't most people) talk about
their work week, it might not align with the calendar week.

He is easily pleased. He spend a lot of money to buy the house that he
had been living it. Then spend on repairs and is now in the midst of
spending $113K on a new roof. He is renting out two rooms for $250 a
month and considers it to be income. He obviously has low enough
expectations to be easily pleased.

That job should go to Druce.

[dsi1]

I took a programming class when I went to electronics school. In the lab were Apple Macs, IBM PC, C-64, and Vic-20. I could do the assignments fast because I went straight to the C-64 or Vic-20. The PC and the Macs needed to have their OSes loaded in first, the C-64 had the OS on a chip so it booted up fast. The PCs and the Macs need to have a BASIC programming language loaded up after the OS. The C-64 had a BASIC command line interpreter as its OS.

BASIC was easy for me because I took a FORTRAN IV class in college - the both use pretty much the same commands. That college class was hell, the class I took in electronics school was easy as pie. Thanks Commodore!

It's a fairly common shift rotation. Works out as 44 hours every 2
weeks for the average. Nothing mystical about it at all.

In Hawaii, the state workers don't get paid on a weekly schedule. They get paid on the 5th and 20th of the month. Why do that do that? I have no freakin' idea. I suppose the answer to that is "because they can."

Hey Ed. Welcome back from your sanity break.

[Taxed and Spent]

They probably do that, or started doing that, due to the computers and
staff being freed up from month end activity by then.

[itsjoan...@webtv.net]

State workers here are paid monthly. I was paid bi-weekly which meant two
months of the year I got three paychecks in those months.

They're currently bigger heroes than armchair painters or armchair
text producers.

[cshenk]

Most people today are paid every 2 weeks based on hours worked those 2
weeks.

I can work 30 hours one week and 50 the next and the pay is the same if
in same pay period.

[Bruce]

Careful or he's gone again.

[dsi1]

That's because your country is kind of backwards. That stagecoach only pulls through town once a month, right? Paying people on calendar dates instead of a regular schedule requires the use of sophisticated high-speed digital computers. Yoose guys should really try getting some.

[cshenk]

State and federal employees are paid every 2 weeks, 26 times a year.
Normally it breaks out as 2 per month. This month for me it was: 1May,
15 May, 29 May. Next month will be 12 June, 26 June.

Long gone are the days when you got overtime if you did more one week
than the other collectively within a pay period. Salaried employees
like John, probably don't get overtime until he hits a set limit that
is past 40 hours a week but right now, he's at 40 on average.

I wish him well!

[dsi1]

There's some state jobs in Hawaii that still pay overtime. The situation is a little nutty because some people are able to get as much overtime as they can grab. I'm talking about months of overtime.

I wish Mr. Kuthe well too, some folks here would like him to fail and fall on his ass. These are not nice people.

Why are you encouraging him to post his rants using a faked address?
That horse has left the barn. He's already said he's never going to
change it.

I really wish I knew why, if he is so thrilled he got a job, he's
resorting to yelling and cussing at people on RFC. We don't really have
anything to do with his work hours or the nurses on staff.

He said "I don't know the facilities too well or the population or

especially the computerized charting tools. But I'm GONNA, because I can
do anything a similarly talented human can do!"

Well then, why is he yelling at everyone on RFC? Because he hasn't
figured it out yet? Oh, I thought he had a computer engineering degree
and it was a three day on the job training program to learn the charting
software and also how to figure out your duties.

So, now he's saying "So go FUCK yourself in the ass with a razor wire
wrapped telephone pole".

Really, we're suppose to think this is a post from a guy who is going to
be successful in his "new job"?

Is that the pay date, or the end of the pay period? Maybe the ends of
the pay periods are the last day of the previous month and the 15th,
with 5 days for payroll processing.

In the U.S., every employer decides the best way to process payroll.
Weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, monthly are all common.

I get paid semimonthly. When my husband was working, he was paid monthly.

I suspect he meant to type "worked" rather than "work". It's
a common error that I've occasionally made myself.

yet he insists we are wrong.

[Cindy Hamilton]

My frank opinion? He's too narcissistic to read what we write with
any attention and too mentally scattered to write clearly.

Over the years at different jobs I was paid bi-weekly, weekly, monthly.
I like monthly best. Just sit down one time, pay the bills and what is
left over is yours.

The first job I had where I was paid monthly it took a couple of weeks
to get used to. Once I was used to it I liked it. Like you, I just sat
down and paid all my bills at one time. I put the extra money in the
bank. :)

I have been paid weekly, biweekly then, for many years, semi monthly. My
wife was a teacher she was paid once a month. Around here teachers are
paid an annual salary, but it is based on the number of teaching days,
so if they are off more days than their sick pay allows, or if they take
unpaid leave, they loose a a significant about. When we were first
married they good a big cheque at the end of the school year and then a
another big on in September, so they had to budget that big June pay for
three months. Later on they changed to equal pay for all 12 months.


I had an issue with overtime. They only paid it once ever few months.
When the OT pay finally came through you would get a huge gross pay, but
then they would withhold income tax as if that was your regular pay, so
you could kiss half of it goodbye until income tax time when you would
be likely to get a big refund.

[jmcquown]

Yep, it's narcissistic. I'm not sure why Kuthe thinks anyone cares how
many hours he's worked. He said he got a job. I believe him. Then he
gets home and runs straight to the computer to cuss everyone out on RFC.
What is the point?

He's stopped taking his meds. There doesn't need to be a point.

[Hank Rogers]

Maybe he don't need them. The meds didn't seem to do much for him.

[Ed Pawlowski]

Many times I've heard "I'm not working overtime because you pay too much
in taxes" It is not easy to explain to many people. Often the same ones
that want to borrow 5 bucks until payday.

[Dave Smith]

I still run into people that think that way. They don't quite understand
that if you make a lot more money in a pay period you will have more tax
money withheld. If it is only occasional OT you will end up getting a
lot of it back at tax time. If it is a regular thing you may not get it
back, but you will still have earned extra bucks.

My son gets a lot of overtime on a regular basis. He is making pretty
good money on his base rate. Being single, he didn't need the extra
cash. He loves to travel so he would usually take his OT in time off.

Pissed off at the patients or his co-workers? He can't cuss them out for
the risk of losing this much-needed job so he comes here and cusses us out
like we have anything to do with his work situation.

I’m totally confused. What is the payroll difference between biweekly,
semimonthly and bimonthly. Google is ambiguous and failing me here. I got
paid on the first and fifteenth of every month for, I think, the whole
damned time I worked.
So what’s that? I’d guess, not biweekly, because a month isn’t
generally four weeks. So then, there’s semimonthly and bimonthly. Which
was it?

Our production lead once said that more pay meant more taxes and she was
sick of taxes. She was a close friend of our company owner, but he didn’t
explain the illogic to her. He was, after all, a capitalist.
