As for the ones who claim they ALWAYS get their keystrokes, I want to know how you're doing this when the work is not there. Are you saying they are holding work especially for you while leaving the rest of us without work?
Why yes, that is EXACTLY what I'm saying. How'd you guess? Next question.
How many hours are you sitting at your computer waiting for work or do you have a life?
I sit down to work at 8:30 a.m. and am finished in time for dinner. Other than on just a few occasions have I had to sit at my computer waiting for work. I am not bragging. As in any debate, there are two sides represented. You obviously are representing the side that is sitting around waiting for work. I'm only saying that I do not. It's only fair.
Bragging that you are getting work when others are not is not helpful or real smart, either.
Again, my statement was not meant to be bragodacious in the least. I am just stating fact. By the way, what do you mean by 'not real smart, either?'
I'm not here to win a popularity contest. I'm not here to call people names like 'butt kisser' or 'smug fool' or to throw out statements that sound sort of...threat-y.
I'll leave that to you.

Rebuttal
If we had been regular employees and not SE then we probably would not have had the scheduling flexibility that I value more than the ''benefit'' of rationed PTO days that you have to beg for, and maybe run the risk of being denied. Pay me a decent line rate and I am more than happy to schedule my infrequent days off without pay to avoid the hassle of having to ask for them.
Regarding the roofer analogy, Ronny Roofer may put one roof on a house you own in your entire life. He might be a fantastic workman, and you may refer him to several friends, but you are not interested in rewarding him and keeping him around and happy for your future roofing needs, now are you?
And there it is, the "so are you" rebuttal. Did you stick your tongue out too?
