    If your boss told you...

    you could come in on saturday, but you didnt have to, would you wake up on saturday morning and go to work or go to the pool?

    Re: If your boss told you...

    This is always part of the discussion of "professionalism". Many employers (and people I know) expect salaried employees to work when work is needed to get done...working extra hours is part of the job. I don't really have an opinion of those that want to call themselves "professional" or not but many people I have worked with do not think people who "punch the clock" fit the catagory.




    For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.

          For the millions that they are being paid? I'd live in the facility. These guy make more money in one season than most people see in their entire life. There simply is no reason for them not to be there unless it's a family emergency. Some people have to work 2 to 3 jobs all year to make ends meet.

          Something makes me wonder if Marv is okay with this since he's always ran a beach resort type of camp.

            If I was a star employee, then no. If I thought I'd get in better with my boss, or I was working my way up the org chart... then hell yes I'd show up...

              They only need to be there a couple of hours. Cripe it's not like they have eight hour practices.

                  Not always. When the guy that hangs out in the pool finally comes to work and starts selling a product and makes more money for the company, he get's the job. It's all about performing and who's more productive on gameday.

                    It almost never works that way.

                      In your pop warner world where parents can complain that their kid that sucks put in more time.

                      You're funny. Especially when you have players from Miami U choosing to workout in florida than their own respective teams. Yeah, Shockey should be benched.

                          No, it almost always works that way. Coffee is for closers.

                            What was the impetus for them having suggested that you can work on Saturday?

                            Is there a heavy load? Your boss doesn't like you? What else perhaps?

                              even a ****** can spell "explanation"

                              If I explained soccer to you, you wouldn't understand . You would need to go brush up on you english first. I don't like having to repeat myself 10 X just so you would understand.

                              PS , when you were a 4 time national champ , did you meet Peggy Flemming or Dorothy Hamil? I heard ICE figure skaters (female) have nice legs.
