Just work more hours

“My aspiration for the country and I believe we can achieve it, is 4 percent growth as far as the eye can see. Which means we have to be a lot more productive, workforce participation has to rise from its all-time modern lows. It means that people need to work longer hours” and, through their productivity, gain more income for their families. That's the only way we're going to get out of this rut that we're in.”
A 2014 Gallup poll found that already many Americans employed full-time report working, on average, 47 hours a week, while nearly 4 in 10 say they work at least 50 hours a week.

How about removing the Obamacare punishment for employing people full time. Move the 29.5ers to full time, and we may be headed in the right direction. But then again, the 29.5 hour work week is a right wing lie, right?

Show me evidence that the workforce has transitioned from full time to part time the last two years as a result of obamacare.HuskyInAZ said:How about removing the Obamacare punishment for employing people full time.

Albeit anecdotal evidence, my son is currently employed by a civil engineering company here in AZ on a summer internship. His work week is 29.5 hours/week. Where do you think that number came from?2001400ex said:

I'd love to only work 29.5 hours/week. 4 day weekends would be sweet.

People show you evidence pretty much every time you ask for it. Then once you get fucking destroyed that way you just pretend you never saw it, go "that's your source?", or interpret it in some retarded way that makes no sense to try and support your delusional stances.2001400ex said:

Show me the obamacare causality. Obamacare is based on full time equivalents. I have no doubt your story is true, as many businesses have benefits to full time employees such as 401k and vacation not provided to part time employees. Obamacare is not the cause.HuskyInAZ said:

•The typical length of employment for the position is 6 months or less, and
•The period of employment begins at approximately the same time each year.
Seasonal employees may not need to be treated as full-timers even if they will work 30+ hours of service per week during the season. Employers can set up measurement periods which can be as long as 12 consecutive months (i.e. longer than the season) to track hours. By doing so, many employers can avoid having to offer healthcare coverage after 90 days of service to seasonal workers who work 30+ hours of service per week.
Anecdotally speaking, an overwhelming majority of those that employers of skilled workers such as civil engineers provide some sort of basic medical benefits to their FT staff anyway, so limiting seasonal staff do 29.5 hours sounds like either a complete misunderstanding of obamacare or using it as some sort of excuse. -
Or perhaps, doesn't want to upset the other, permanent, fulltime workers at 29.5 hours and no benefits.
You know... workplace harmony and shit. -

I didn't read it on breitbart, daily caller, or that UK website so fuck off. (Even tho what you said is correct) -

Yes.
Apparently there is a rule that says if you don't do your homework on time, you don't get to play at school.
Some here believe that means VA will stand at the fence with cleats over shoulder, crying and waiting and that will put him behind when 'real' practice starts.
I believe, VA and the WR's will practice diligently, off site, essentially telling the NCAA to fuckoff. -
Not to mention the VA coach was placed on 29.5 hours so they didn't have to pay his obamacare.GrundleStiltzkin said:Yes.

INTERVENTION BITCH! YOU ARE ANNOYINGGGGG -
40% of the people do not work 50 hour weeks.
Bullshit. -
I don't know a single non-governmental full time employee or business owner working less than 50hour weeks right now... other than Damone who is making twice the money with half the effort... and of course the investors who forgot to schedule a return trip with Ozone from the deep Alaskan bush.

Checking your email from home doesn't count as working....what a load of shit. People just want everyone to think they work harder than everyone else. Life is so tough.

If you're working that much and getting paid based on a 40 hour salary you either suck at your job (and life), or your company is Mr. Hands and you're Kenneth Pinyan.

Work smarter not harder ... some need to learn the difference.
Biggest problem in our workplace right now as a society is that too many have no idea what they are looking for in data and because there is so much of it there is too much of a focus on trying to find anything possible in there that might explain something.
Bizness has been happening forever and will continue to happen forever ... the things that make you successful are the fundamentals. Execute the fundamentals well and you will succeed ... that will never change. The rest is overthinking it.
