LYC, and this is totally unrelated to anything other than I just happened to be thinking about it ... but there was this time when I worked about 115

hours in a 2-week period at a pizza place job that I had years ago. this was, like, in the late '90s, just for perspective here . ..

the long and short of it is that it was December, a few people had quit, and I basically worked a 13-day stretch without a day off. I clocked in around 115 hours on a single paycheck. that's 35 hours just in the overtime department. and I was making $7.50 at the time, again just for perspective.

that's over $1200 before taxes on my paycheck, and that doesn't even include whatever tips I was making during that time.

damn, but that was some good money for delivering pizzas in the 1990s. I *almost* wish I could go back to that for a while . . .
