I'm off to PE[^] between Christmas and New Year's.
Not quite Cancun, but I've got family down there, so it'll be nice anyway.
Cheers,
Simon

Maybe once we have a programmers union we can start getting rid of the notion that just because we are in IT we don't get paid overtime.

Maybe if you finished your designated tasks on time, you won't need to worry about overtime.

And what happens when your boss (the designer) didn't do their job well... Usually, the delay in projects (and eventually, the time we -the programmers- have to spent at night) are caused because of bad decitions of the project leaders. Often, also, sellers sell things that the system cannot do, and -there you go- a new development has to be made with too few time. In those cases, we actually should be paid overtime.
Yet, in Mexico at least, we don't have that problem. At least in the places I've worked, they do pay overtime, and often they reward the effort (i.e. in March the company is taking us to Acapulco, all expenses included, for one week).
One day you'll find
that I have gone,
for tomorrow may rain, so
I'll follow the sun...

That is definitley a posibility. There are others but then I'd be going over the 30 seconds meaningful conversation I can have, according to you bio: "My weakest point is that my moments of clarity are too brief to hold a meaningful conversation that requires more than 30 seconds to complete."
Oh well...

Hmm, union, huh?
That means, anyone inside is looked at as he / she could be something else? 
Just joking.

Yeah, I couldn't agree more. Why don't we get paid for the nights spent on the job?

What would life be without programmers and salesmen?
