My typical       workday begins at 4 am and runs till about 10am, then there is a break       of 4 or 5 hours followed by another 3 or 4 hours of work. That is the       way it works out the best for the geographic locations of folks that I       work with. So while there is relatively little standard workday shared,       the actual workday shifts that we regularly practice makes for a pretty       large "workday overlap".              --- SoupGate/W32 v1.03        * Origin: LiveWire BBS -=*=- UseNet FTN Gateway (1:2320/1)    |
