Like long hours?

["Marsha G. Kamish" <mgkamish -at- yahoo -dot- com>]

Trying to get this back on topic, I do believe the
question was, ASSUMING THE EXTRA HOURS ARE ABUSIVE
(sorry for shouting), what do you do? Do you have a
heart-to-heart with the boss showing him/her pictures
of your lonely family? Do you bring out the contract
and a spreadsheet with lots of numbers and logic? How
do you approach the boss without insulting his/her
lack of planning or rubbing in his/her face the fact
that s/he's powerless to add more personnel? 

Please forget the argument/discussion about what
causes the extra hours - just assume the tech writer
is a hard worker and there is too much work. What do
you do? What *do* you do?

We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.
