This totally bothers me, why is overtime expected- without anything in return!
My ex-boss expected me to put in 'the extra effort.'
I was already working 45+hrs/week plus once a week going to a really early morning meeting and then going to something after hours 2-3x a month. And if anything was missing or needed to be redone I was expected to take calls or do work on weekends.


On a personal note, I have no plans on getting married until after grad school. Its already expensive to go to grad school, but getting financial aid with two person income- LOL yeah right!!

And on not liking southern girls- I grew up in VA and have lived in Ga for about 8 years now.
