Just for the record, when I worked a lot of OT it was actually counter productive as I paid the additional Tax on my wages. Thanks to Bill Clintons tax increase which taxed wages over your norm at a greater percentage, working OT became far more expensive for people like me to work and we saw
far less profit for our work. I made less money in the later part of the 90's than I did in the on set of the 90's, and I worked more and was paid a higher wage. Figure that one out.
(On the plus side, the tax increase did help to improve the deficate and that is a small price to pay. But now all that money and work has gone to pot and I fear what Kerry will do to correct the problem.)
And for the record, this was not pulled out of my butt. I have the tax paper and check stubs to prove it.
