[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***-—No employer should ever have the “right” to compel a person to work twelve hours per day seven days a week.—****

Oh for heaven’s sake. In the “Good old days” the average work day was 16 hours a day, six days a week.

At my job I worked many a 16 hour day. got well paid for it.

Wouldn’t want to do it every day!

--on personal note, starting five years ago, I worked three six-month summer job stretches at a gold mine in South Dakota ,--12 hour shifts 6am-6pm and 6pm-6am, 14 days work out of 28--hadn't had so much fun since I was a kid--where else could a 68 year boy drive a 100 ton Cat truck in a three mile long sandbox , at speeds of up to thirty mph--

--worst part of it was having to listen to the occasional complaining of guys half my age about it---
