Slaves?

Wasn't joking. Didn't even have to ask for it. Direct deposited into my account shortly after it was announced through e-mail at work.

I work 4 days on, then have 4 days off. My schedule is different every week. I'll be off tomorrow through Saturday, then have to work Sunday through Wednesday next week. I work 12 hour shifts during those 4 days, 6 AM to 6 PM with an unpaid hour lunch break. So I get 44 hours a week. But, since the schedule changes every week, I have two small checks in a row and then two large checks, with 8 hours of OT, in a row. I get paid every two weeks. But I get what amounts to 16 days of paid time off at the start of every year. I've already burned through it for this year because of my son. I get a Christmas bonus every year that escalates by $100 up until it reaches $1,000, which is the maximum anyone gets. This year I get $700, next year $800, then so on. Plus, since I work for a Catholic television network, they give you $1,000 for every baby you have. $2,000 if you have more than one at a time. If both you and your spouse work here, then you each get that baby bonus. Maybe I shouldn't have had a vasectomy. I also get 11 hours of pay on holidays regardless of whether or not I'm actually scheduled to work that day in addition to my regular 11 hours. So, I either get paid double for working holidays, or I just get an extra day of pay during the week of a holiday. My job isn't very stressful at all, it mostly involves killing time. Lastly, I'm on an escalating pay scale to get me to where I make the same money other people who do my job in this market make. I've been guaranteed a $2,500 annual raise over the next 3 years, but my salary target number will go up during that time because I will be hitting 10 consecutive years of service time in January of 2013.

Hopefully you won't get traded before you get your 10/5 rights. :-/
