The music these artists think they own... they dont. They sold their souls, and publishing rights to the devil. To the labels they "own" everything the artists do. Slavery is alive and well in America.

Sorry but if I see an INR for one of my systems I want to make sure I know exactly whats going on. Because in the end, I am still responsible for those systems. Some of us still take pride in our work. Some of us still put teamwork high up in the priority list. (Not to imply you dont)Just because I am not at work does not mean they dont need my help.
Just want to put in your 40 and collect a check? Well thats ok, but dont cry when you get 1 or 2% for a raise. Dont cry when you get passed up for another position you really wanted. Dont cry when your job gets outsourced to third world countries where they will work twice the hours for half the pay.
"Your rant is misdirected" Seems as if the Germans are taking a page from the Amerikan worker.
When I am thinking of fat lazy fellow Americans it becomes Amerika. Spelling? Really? Never seen it spelled that way before? Haven't spent much time on the intertubewebs have ya?
I have heard all of the work life balance, and healthy good life blueprint crap these tree hugging hippie CEO's are spewing nowadays. I stand by my original statement. SUCK IT UP AND GET BACK TO WORK AMERIKA. And if you have to take 70, 80, 90 hours to get er done then f'in do it.
Despite popular belief, we are all not fat lazy Americant's.

No asshole, GoDaddy made a mistake by supporting legislation that any tech company should be deathly afraid of, their users have been notified of their position on it, and have decided to pursue other venues to host their websites. Nobody yelled over them, nothing was taken away.
"It was definitely enough activity to make GoDaddy realize it was going to be in trouble if it didn't change its position."
See my comment below. No amount of backpedaling can help them at this point.
Its like me declaring how much I hate Techdirt, but now, because I am losing users, all of a sudden
I J U S T L O V E TECHDIRT. Empty statements from empty minds.
If you are a salaried employee STFU and read your emails, and if it is an issue, shut it off. If I am busy, I just dont read them. Whaaaa whaaaa work life balance, I need my precious time off. Really? What a bunch of babies we have become.
Now in the case of an hourly employee, we just had a situation in my company where hourly employees were trying to claim overtime due to responding to emails/calls after hours. He he. So we just took all their phones and enacted policy that hourly employees are not to have company provided phones anymore.
My first really well paying job with a plumber at 18 was 60, 70, 80, and sometimes 90 hour weeks. Suck it up Amerika and get back to work.
See what happens when tree hugging hippies became CEO's.
